Franklin

About This Movie

So, Franklin is this quirky little gem from 2015 that dives into the absurdity of technology and loneliness. The protagonist, Franklin, a bit of a misfit, gets this 3D printer kit and thinks he can literally print himself a companion. The comedy is offbeat, you know? It balances these whimsical moments with a touch of existential pondering. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it has this charming DIY vibe. Practical effects are surprisingly effective in bringing Franklin's creations to life, adding a tangible feel to the fantasy. The performances are low-key but engaging, really drawing you into Franklin's world of isolation and hope. It’s a unique mix that sticks with you long after watching.
