Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

This film has won over 30 awards and from what I've seen, it is very well deserved. 1 Buck gives you a taste of unfortunate reality. All of the actor's performances were very well delivered. The cinematography is raw and beautiful which matches execution of the gritty tone. Director Fabien Dufils did an amazing job of capturing the unfiltered essence of the story in his first feature film.

Very Dark subjects and intense driven moments by the characters were delivered very well. Do not attention to the unnecessary negative reviews. This is one of the best indie films that I've seen with great execution over some of the larger budget Hollywood films.

I like films with different moods and to give you an open mind. 1 Buck displays no filters to create a mood for each character's circumstances. Great direction and cinematography and the actors made characters their own. I only wish that this type of movie was a little longer than 88 minutes. Looking forward to future work from this team.

Very solid independent film exploring the gritty behaviors of Louisiana characters. Some people are only use to one way drama stories which is why they don't give this a chance. 1 Buck attempts to put you in the character's position without doing too much in the same vein as what some people would do in real life behind closed doors. It's a little dose of reality which some people can't handle at times. Lead character Harry played by John Freeman establishes the character behavior very well. Also, strong gripping highlights from actress Katie Ryan as Amara and a wonderfully fierce performance by Will Green as Jordan in addition to the other excellent ensemble completes director Fabien Dufils intense visual efforts. Definitely recommend for open minded audiences.
