“Very touching and also very funny.” - Alan Berliner
“Deftly constructed, playful, cheerful, charming, Directed By Tweedie is affectionate, engaging, and a great indicator of talent.” - EyeforFilm 4.5star review.
“A delightful film that strikes on subtle inter-generational differences, capturing personality and a charming ordinariness.” - Gorilla Film Magazine
“Extremely comical…. a personal reflection on the medium of film itself.” - Corstosfera
Making a film when you're 87 is less than convenient. As granddad ‘Tweedie’ reluctantly takes up his new role as a filmmaker, we’re invited to examine the difficulties of communication between the generations.
Will Tweedie start to see the world differently when looking at things through the lens of his 23year old grandson, or will he simply be wondering what's for pudding?
