"Who's Ma Ma! Joe Ma Ma!" Review |
 |
An earlier work from Sean J.S. Jourdan, "Who's Ma Ma! Joe Ma Ma!" is a short documentary about, in Jourdan's words "A badass motorcycle mechanic" who is working on being a father. With lower production values and a more straightforward filmmaking approach than "An Open Door," the film is an interesting, if modest effort by Jourdan. Despite the film's modest production values, the film is interesting throughout its 13-minute run and the characters in question are quite captivating. Being able to see two Jourdan films at one time, it's easy to appreciate Jourdan's growth in camera angles, pacing and editing. While the audience for this film is undoubtedly limited, especially given its extensive use of graphic language, Jourdan's unbiased presentation of his subject gives the film a surprising degree of warmth and humanity.
