Crust is really an emotional roller-coaster and a great film. The family dynamics are entertaining and intense, and the sense of 'belonging' is gripping. Although Fabi doesn't say a lot, the camera catches his thoughts so well: Philip Kapell is really a fine young actor. Really, the entire cast was 'spot-on.' The daughter was a dangerous and edgy foil to Fabi. The father/ grandfather relationship tore me apart inside. And the roller-coaster itself was like a fifth character in the film: it had its own personality! It was a comedy, a drama, a horror film, and a family film all at the same time. Really impressive work, as every minute of the film was an important and potent part of the whole.
