What a Short Film is Supposed to Be!, 25 August 2007
9/10
Author: jbaldino (baldi100@chapman.edu) from United States

The Vaudevillian is a wonderful little piece that reminds me of why I'm in film school in the first place. As they say...STORY, STORY, STORY! This film doesn't go for cheap thrills but rather it maintains a kind of honest simplicity that lets the characters work their magic. The script is funny, sad, witty, and poignant all at once. The characters are, for the most part, well cast, and the cinematography is above-par. On the surface, "The Vaudevillian" is about a single man's inner conflict played out as a dialogue between himself and his dummy, but on another level the film is about the universal struggle between what is good for the self and what is good for others, and the character-defining moments of when one must exclude the other.

A well conceived and well executed film that deserves to be seen. 9/10.
