Quotes
Utterly charming is how I would immediately describe Mallory Memphis, a short film recently screened at the Female Eye Film Festival. With an approximate three-minute runtime, the film manages to use a rhyming voiceover, playful music, and an absurdist bent to tell the tale of Mallory Memphis, the titular character who succeeds at everything but holding her breath. While the film seems joyfully upbeat at first, a dark turn near the end adds an element of surprise and dark undertones. - Melissa Gonik, http://www.ferntv.ca/mallory-memphis-charms-female-eye-film-festival/
