The past and its ties to the present drive Ben Scranton’s poignant “Charlotte’s Revival.” One evening, while Charlie changes the titles on the marquee of a revival movie theater, Charlotte asks him why he has left off the name of the film’s child actor. The interchange that follows, as Charlie tries to understand Charlotte, revives old memories and a heartbreaking history that may connect Charlie to Charlotte in ways he does not suspect or recall. An exquisite examination of one fragile woman’s purchase on reality. Highly recommended for festivals and lovers of film.
