Where are great director/writers like David Burkman, in a sea of crap? Maggie Moore(Better titled 'Breaking Up With Maggie Moore') is one of the best short films i've seen in a very long time. It's writing was fresh and delightful.
The main characters, Alex(David Norona)and Maggie(Alison Simpson) are believable in their parts as a couple breaking up after 3 years. As maggie puts it, 3 years of "waiting". When Maggie takes it upon herself to read Alex's diar...journal, she realizes that he is at a loss at how to keep the relationship alive. Ending their relationship, Alex seeks the advice and companionship of his best friend, while Maggie hooks up with a gym-man, alex colorfully nicknames "Hauns". After a few flashbacks, Alex begins to realize that he himself pushed away a woman who loved him. but has he realized it too late?
