Matthew Nourse THE PACIFIC AND EDDY (2006, 87 Minutes, 16MM)
Ryan Donowho and Dominique Swain star in this challenging and beautifully shot coming of age story.
In the wake of a sudden loss, Eddy (Ryan Donowho) unexpectedly skips town, leaving his friends to mourn for him. A vagabond musician, Eddy runs until there is was nowhere left to run to but home. The Pacific and Eddy captures the uncertainty of a time when indenties begin to reveal themselves. Finding refuge in the swells of the Pacific, Eddy must look inward to deal with the loss he truly never mourned.
Following in the tradition Blow Up and Code Unknown where story information is oblique and often challenging, The Pacific and Eddy keeps the audience enchanted by it's subtle mystique and visual beauty. In addition to these core elements, music is monumental in the film's effectiveness and emotional resonance.
