Pomp & Circumstance

About This Movie

Pomp & Circumstance offers a quirky glimpse into the chaos of impending adulthood. Set in Burlington, Vermont, it dives into the absurdity of college life with a plot spiraling around a professor's mayoral ambitions, an Elvis impersonator, and a group of radical artists. The humor feels fresh, almost chaotic at times, capturing that frantic energy of youth. The pacing dances between rapid-fire dialogue and moments of surreal calm, making it feel both unpredictable and engaging. Performances vary from earnest to delightfully eccentric, which adds to the film's distinct tone. Practical effects, while not a focal point, complement the offbeat vibe nicely. It’s like a snapshot of a bizarre moment in life—messy, fun, and absurdly relatable.
