We Should Be a Movie

About This Movie

We Should Be a Movie is an intriguing character study that unfolds over the course of a single morning. The tension between Alvin, the pop star with a hazy memory of the night before, and Latifa, who recalls every detail, creates an atmosphere thick with anxiety and self-examination. Their dialogue-driven exchanges explore themes of identity, accountability, and the intersections of fame and personal connection. There's a rawness to their performances; you really feel the awkwardness and vulnerability. It has a stripped-down quality, focusing more on the emotional landscape than flashy effects, which feels intentional and thought-provoking.

This film has been a bit elusive in terms of physical formats, with limited releases making it somewhat scarce among collectors. I’ve noticed that it’s gaining interest for its unique narrative structure and character depth, which sets it apart from more conventional fare. If you're into indie films that prioritize dialogue and character over spectacle, this one might hold a special place in your collection.
