‘The Last Krispie‘ was the follow up to renegade short film-maker Ed Godsell’s seminal ‘The Unbearable‘. This often overlooked gem’s impact possibly suffered because of its predecessors late surge of unprecedented form on the World’s festival circuit. However, it remains a startling piece of work in its own right.
Godsell employs his trademark sense of tension to the medium as the viewer is treated to a tour de force display of concise cinematic magic.
A suitably lanquid Stephen Brennan plays the hapless office prole in perhaps his finest role since ‘The Ass and the Alter‘. Jane Skovgaard’s sumptuous scantily clad cameo as the unfortunate post-lady literally left this writer glued to his cinema seat.
This piece thrilled fans on release but has not yet garnered the widespread appraisal it so richly deserves.
The poster is a three colour screenprint and is also due re-appraisal.
