Here are a few links to websites that have had their curiosity piqued by The MUTE Series:
And here's an interview that the NO DIALOGUE project in Bristol conducted with Andy Lambert about the series.
Here’s a selection of things they’ve said:
“Ridiculously funny.”
SCRIPT MAGAZINE www.scriptmag.com
“Hilariously deadpan.”
LAUGHING SQUID www.laughingsquid.com
“Lambert’s award-winning anthology returns with 3 more quick yet unforgettable vignettes that imaginatively chronicle the most unexpected moments of everyday life… The newest works are diverse and entertaining – and they all come with their own unexpected twists.”
SNOBBY ROBOT www.snobbyrobot.com
(re: Deliverance) “Brilliantly handled by Lambert and his silent cast. Those contemplating a period of self-isolation will no doubt appreciate this irreverent spin on a life lived off-grid.”
DAVID REVIEWS www.davidreviews.com
“Hilarious.. this series has understood what the post-aesthetic treatment of the 21st century is going to be… Here is a talent that should be signed by Studio+ or Blackpills.”
ARPA.TV www.arpa.tv
“Funny, thoughtful, and surprisingly twisty… The MUTE Series represents the spirit of digital content… The MUTE Series is worthy of respect — and, perhaps, study.”
TUBEFILTER www.tubefilter.com (December 2016 - Top Five Indies Series of 2016)
“The Mute Series has a short but intense wit.”
INDIEPOST www.indiepost.co.kr
"The MUTE Series is a compelling experiment in minimalism…. In very short periods of time, Lambert manages to convey a broad range of emotions while also showing off some beautiful cinematography.”
TUBEFILTER www.tubefilter.com (October 2016)
“MUTE is a selection of short, dialogue free, single shot, no camera movement films which are a clever and often funny bite-size slice of life.”
SHOTS www.shots.net
"Like a modern-day Jacques Tati, Lambert creates his own absurdist universe out of life’s funny moments.”
JOANNA HOGG, Director of ‘The Souvenir’
