Mixtape – Luke Snellin
I’m normally dubious of corporate short film competitions. You know, the ‘make a two second short featuring our brand in 14 minutes yada yada yada’. It was with trepidation then that I checked out the Virgin Media Shorts winner Mixtape by Luke Snellin. It came recommended by the wonderful Electric Literature magazine though so I trusted it somewhat. Plus it was called Mixtape.
And lo if it wasn’t just a joyous little movie full of teen romance and hope and the wonderful Bill Milner in the lead role. This is the perfect Friday afternoon film to get you in the mood for the weekend.
