Picture Perfect (I) (2013)
9/10
Farewell John Carson
15 June 2024
This is a beautiful, little short film that features the wonderful John Carson in his film farewell.. He plays David, a tired pensioner , clearly unhappy with his life who comes to live with his sister. He brings along his best friend, his little dog. David is clearly having trouble settling in and also has unhappy memories of his father. He picks up a picture at a car boot sale and this brings good memories flooding back, and is this picture somehow magical or just David's imagination?

John Carson gives a touching performance here and captures perfectly the sadness of his character. It's well worth a look to catch his farewell, it's beautifully told. All the other actors are perfect and if only this little film was more widely available. It's thoroughly recommend especially if you are an admirer of the late John Carson.
