CGiii Comment

You would be hard-pressed to find a film as tedious as this...riddled with pretension, self-indulgence and arrogance.

Carbone's debut sees his head firmly planted up his own retentive ass...did you watch your film before you released it?!? Oh, you feel asleep too!

There may be a pinch of subtext...somewhere amidst the bloated scenes of nothingness.

And then...when you least expect it...it just ends...adding insult to injury.

A dismal, fraudulent bore.

The(ir) Blurb...

After a neighborhood tragedy, two adolescent brothers confront changing relationships, the mystery of nature, and their own mortality. Hide Your Smiling Faces is an atmospheric exploration of rural American life through the often distorted lens of youth.
