Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Fantom Reeler High school has been a popular subject in movies and especially comedies. Most focus on carnal instincts and social cliques, but in Dirty Books we have a light comedy focusing on a goal of keeping a school newspaper in print rather than converting it to a blog. To that end David, the main character of the story and the editor of his high school paper, will try to save his paper by finding the most newsworthy story possible...even if he has to create it himself.Noah Bailey does a fantastic job as the lead character, David; a very commendable job holding his own in every scene, even in scenes with the very talented and seasoned Timothy J. Cox who does a wonderful job, as usual, as Principal Bradley.Beyond a talented young cast is excellent direction and cinematography using composition and perspective to good effect. The editing is tight and the dialogue is not only natural, it also simply has no filler wasting space in this film.Well written and directed, tight editing, not a dead moment anywhere, and a great cast makes for an excellent film that I give a top rating.
