The Outsider: A Looper's Story

2/16/2023

A fine enough short, which links itself (unofficially, obvs) to 2012's <em>'<a href="https://letterboxd.com/film/looper/" rel="nofollow">Looper</a>'</em>. Haruka Abe leads very stylishly, she looks the part in this to be fair. Interesting that in the year following, she starred in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-M1AtrxztU" rel="nofollow">Clean Bandit's 'Rather Be'</a> music video - some track and some throwback, 10 years ago?! The minimal story of 'The Outsider: A Looper's Story' is alright, while the film is shot more than competently. It doesn't add much, if anything, but I respect the effort, as always.
