One of the strongest British debuts of 2011, brittle, sepulchral comedy Black Pond bodes very well for the future careers of co-writing and helming partners Will Sharpe, an actor who appears here, and Tom Kingsley, a director of commercials and music videos. Made on a shoestring budget, this story of a fraying suburban family crossing paths with a disturbed stranger features well-tuned performances, inventive visuals and a script that’s unsettling, funny and poignant by turns. The casting of Chris Langham in the leading role reps a bold choice. Langham, who played a hapless cabinet minister in BBC satire The Thick of It, was convicted in 2007 of downloading child pornography, served three months in prison, and hadn´t worked since. Animation and in-camera effects make for a crudely executed but peculiarly uncanny dream sequence. (Karlovy Vary International Film Festival)
