Short Film Review: Boldly Gone

film reviews | movies | features | BRWC Short Film Review: Boldly Gone

Two estranged brothers are brought together to launch their father’s ashes into space.

Boldly Gone delivers two great performances in an adeptly crafted short that is neither twee nor overbearing in its sentimentality. It’s refreshing to see such a simple concept brought to film with an accomplished balance of humour and emotional heft. Their relationship is believable and for the small amount of screen-time they share, you really get a sense of their characters.

With a couple of lovely touches in the soundtrack, Boldly Gone will put a smile in your heart without leaving a saccharine taste in your mouth.

Regular type person by day, film vigilante by night. Spent years as a 35mm projectionist (he got taller) and now he gets to watch and wax lyrical about all manner of motion pictures. Daryl has got a soft spot for naff Horror and he’d consider Anime to be his kryptonite.
