Out Of Control

About This Movie

Out Of Control (1982) offers a unique blend of short narratives that capture youthful exuberance and the complexities of coming-of-age moments. Shot with a grainy, almost nostalgic feel, the film flows through vignettes that are both playful and slightly raw. "Winter's Come," or "Teenage Sex Party," juxtaposes the innocence of a winter vacation with burgeoning desires, while the titular segment explores unexpected encounters and connections. The performances feel genuine, with a sense of spontaneity that adds to the overall atmosphere. There's a lightness here, but also an undercurrent of exploration that resonates with the viewer in a way that feels personal and inviting.

Out Of Control is part of a niche collection that includes early works from Matt Sterling, which many collectors seek out for their unique storytelling. The history of its release on various formats has made it a bit elusive, especially in good condition. Interest among collectors is growing, particularly for those who appreciate the blend of short films and the specific era's aesthetic.
