‘Private’ Short Film that Honors its Noir Roots
“Calloway was hired by a hot woman…scratch that…a beautiful dame (played by Sandy Bainum)…The acting is great from both Steve Blackwood and Sandy Bainum.

Considering that the movie is only twenty minutes long, it’s a testament to the way they are each played. I liked them both.”
