Let's imagine one could take a heaping jigger of Citizen Kane, another of Blade Runner, pour in a dash of the life of Walt Disney, shake not stir, then serve it chilled with a twist of 2001. That pretty much gives you Able Edwards. Sometime in the far future, in a desperate step to reverse their failing fortunes, a Mega-Corporation creates a clone from the cryogenic remains of their long dead founder. Shot entirely with a mini DV before a green screen, devoid of both the bloated budgets or numbing razzle-dazzle from state of the art CGI, the black and white Able Edwards proves far more satisfying than either Inception or Tron: Legacy. Aided by Scott Kelly Galbreath's superb performance and Michael Suby's excellent musical score, Graham Robertson demonstrates how a filmmaker is able to exceed the restrictions of their financial limitations; you just need talent. Available for streaming and on DVD.
