Big Eyes

About This Movie

Big Eyes is one of those curious films that kind of flies under the radar, you know? It has this laid-back, almost whimsical vibe as it follows Benny Furman, a basketball head coach who's just lost in his own world of indecision. The pacing is pretty leisurely, but it allows for some interesting explorations of identity and ambition. The practical effects are minimal, but the performances carry a lot of weight, especially the lead who brings this quirky charm to the role. There's a certain charm in its simplicity that makes it stand out among the more polished productions of the time.

Big Eyes has had a somewhat limited release over the years, with only a handful of VHS and DVD editions making their rounds in collector circles. It's not exactly a common title, which adds some intrigue for those who appreciate lesser-known films. Scarcity is a notable factor here, and while it might not be the first film people think of, it’s definitely one of those hidden gems that can spark conversations among collectors.
