Macon: "Johnny's Gone" (***1/2)

Johnny Sinclair and LaDon Drummond star in "Johnny's Gone"

The first feature I saw at the Macon Film Festival was Giorgio Serafini's "Johnny's Gone." Serafini co-wrote the film with his wife and frequent collaborator, LaDon Drummond, who also stars as Sarah. It is obvious from the start that Serafini isn't an amateur. While he might not be a recognized name, he has had some time to polish his skills as a filmmaker. Making the absolute most out of a shoe-string budget, "Johnny's Gone" is full of surprising twists, beautiful photography and a perfectly tuned soundtrack.
