Curfew


A suicidal junkie babysits his precocious and estranged niece in this dark Oscar nominated short film. Fatima Ptacek, who plays the niece, is shockingly good. The impromptu dance sequence in the bowling alley adds a touch of needed levity. Curfew was my second favorite of the Best Live Action Short Films, and it probably won't win due to its seedy plot-line.
