A Black Screen Too

About This Movie

A Black Screen Too feels like a vibrant exploration of contrasts. Rhayne Vermette's follow-up to Black Rectangle dives deep into color and movement, but don't be fooled by that vibrancy—there's a palpable darkness lurking underneath. The pacing is deliberately measured, allowing the audience to sink into its buzzing world, which is a nod to the experimental works of Lambart and McLaren. The practical effects bring a tactile quality that makes the animation feel alive, almost breathing. You can sense the weight of themes like isolation and connection, which resonate throughout. The performances, while animated, carry a depth that really pulls you in. It's that blend of light and dark that makes it distinctively intriguing.
