SMALL PARTS cover image
I have to admit that this short film definitely made me chuckle. As a parent of kids who LOVED LEGOS I can totally relate to the obsession of these two young men.

The storyline follows two guys that run into each other at a garage sale, where they both want to own a limited edition LEGO set.

Well made by college students, Hank McNeil, Aidan O'Malley and JP Spoonmore. Good production - from the camera work to the audio to the editing - and well acted. There are definitely some scenes that depict unnecessary acts of violence, like when the older guy in the car runs over the guy on a bike, but we're going to overlook that as something that emphasizes the storyline. Great background music. And, the special effects, accompanied by opera music, when the set escapes their clutches and flies in the air, are priceless. The ending is a welcome relief, showing that even in the most extreme circumstances friendships can be made.

The film's message is about finding friends in the most unlikely places.

I give Small Parts 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 18. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
