Tarantino meets Truffaut in this fiercely gripping and international award-winning film from Ryan Hauser and Brandon Maxwell. "The Willing Suspension of Disbelief" is a taut psychological thriller in which Quentin (Ryan Hauser), a down and out filmmaker, enters the very noir crime world depicted in his his films to steal the money he desperately needs to finish his ragtag production. Matters become increasingly complicated when Quentin becomes involved with the mysterious Veri Similitude (Erinn Gavaghan), a nightclub singer and aspiring actress who happens to be involved with the very crime boss that he is trying to rob. The line between reality and cinema deteriorates as Quentin delves deeper and deeper into the criminal underworld and becomes more and more obsessed with finishing his film until his life and art threaten to converge toward a catastrophic collision.
...a furious, obsessive and impressively realized film that burned the fat right off my brain. -- David Savage, CinemaRetro.com
