Gritty Urban drama shot Law and Order style

Douglas Elford-Argent directs Law and Order style, using hand held cameras with on location backdrops, the characters are real and believable drawing you closer to the action. Shot in only 2 weeks this is a true directional debut must. Shot by William M Miller, a DP from Spike Lee's 'Home Invaders', and starring Jamie Hector from 'He Got Game'

The pace continues with 'La Falls' another Elford-Argent feature, at only 27 years it will be interesting to see what Elford-Argent achieves with a higher budget from Hollywood. I can only hope he continues this style of 'real' film making, which is so popular with such shows as 'The Shield' and 'Law and Order'
