The Misfit

A harrowing crime drama that explores morality, faith and the human psyche.
4/5

Review

Patrick Lloyd Green’s a short drama film, based on Flannery O’Connor’s iconic short story ‘A Good Man is Hard To Find’, is a chilling and thought-provoking exploration of human nature and the power of religion. With a talented cast led by Scott Saint Blaze as The Misfit and Susan Anderson as the Grandmother, the film masterfully captures the tense atmosphere and moral dilemmas presented in O’Connor’s original work.

From the moment the family’s car breaks down and they find themselves at the mercy of The Misfit and his associate, the film takes viewers on a harrowing journey. Blaze’s portrayal of The Misfit is both menacing and complex, showcasing the character’s inner conflict and resistance to the grandmother’s attempts at redemption through religion. Anderson’s performance as the Grandmother is equally impressive, capturing her unwavering faith in the face of impending doom.

The cinematography by Koltin Sullivan is exceptional, effectively capturing the ominous ambiance of the narrative. Each shot is carefully composed, adding to the overall tension and sense of unease. The film’s production value is of the highest quality, further enhancing the immersive experience for the audience.

While not for the faint-hearted, Green’s adaptation stays true to the dark and unsettling nature of O’Connor’s story. It unflinchingly explores themes of morality, faith, and the complexities of human nature. This short film is a testament to the creative vision of its director and the exceptional performances of its cast.
