Film Review – Trust Me

In the acting business for 25 years, I trust writer/director/star Clark Gregg’s perspective on the film business. His second moviemaking endeavor, “Trust Me” (following 2008’s “Choke”), has an amazing lived-in feel as we watch a desperate agent work the angles around power players in Hollywood. It has the lingo and speed, and the story lends itself to a type of insider perspective that’s riveting, getting to understand the often sneaky machinations of casting deals. Clark isolates all the desperation and surges of confidence required to complete a contract, but dramatically, “Trust Me” goes from stability to seppuku. It’s the kind of picture that could be shut off at the hour mark and nothing would be missed. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
