Tears in the Rain (2017)
If you liked Blade Runner, you'll almost certainly like this short film
With a $1,500 budget and very little experience, director Christopher Grant Harvey produced an 11-minute scene that is easily on par with many of the scenes found in big-budget blockbusters. It helps a great deal that the actors were professionals -- the performance by Russel Savadier as the janitor is particularly critical to the success of the final result. Even so, this indie short is a testament to what can be done with little more than a great story idea and modern filmmaking equipment. If you liked Blade Runner, it's a safe bet that you'll like Tears in the Rain.
If any producers are reading this review, I'd like to add that if a film comes out with "Christopher Grant Harvey" in the credits, I plan to watch it unless something is horribly wrong otherwise. I don't have any connection to the film or the filmmaker, it's just that I enjoyed seeing something in the Blade Runner universe so much that I want to see what the director comes up with next -- even if it's not related to science fiction.
