Charlie is a 2007 American film starring D.J. Mendel and is the directorial debut film of writer-director Salvatore Interlandi.
Film critic Aaron Hillis described Interlandi as being under the influence of director John Cassavetes during the filming Charlie.
Charlie, a working class stiff, who suspects his wife has been cheating on him, goes on a drunken rampage throughout New York City in hopes of finding his wife's lover.
The Village Voice, "As a story, Charlie is slight, but as an experimental character study, it's a rich and moving tangle of emotional schizophrenia."
New York Post, "All in all, a lot of talented people are showcased on both sides of the camera in "Charlie." It's enough to renew your faith in the future of cinema."
The New York Times, "âÂÂCharlieâ has too much maudlin emoting, too many raggedy or redundant scenes... But it also has guts and soul, and a keen appreciation of grown-up pain â qualities sorely lacking in American independent film today."
