The production value of this short film 'The Killing of Mary Surratt" is an excellent example of how passion and creative vision come together using limited funds and a dedicated team to make something truly special. Produced on a 'non-Hollywood' budget and shot in Sacramento - the filmmaker paints an eerily accurate picture of the true events. The script, cinematography and acting are superb and in my opinion, King's short is a better film than the feature length version by Robert Redford that came out AFTER King's was completed. Chris King continues to impress and inspire us with his talent as a writer and a filmmakers as he consistently creates compelling films that make a big impact.
