Megan Is Missing is a Romantic-Comedy written and directed by Michael K. Goi that was released in 2011 to mostly average reviews. The film depicts the adventures of two happy go-lucky friends on a journey to juvenile self-discovery after coming into contact with a mysterious stranger. The director affords the audience a voyeuristic view of proceedings by making use of the "found footage" technique employing a variety of sources including web cams, mobile-telephones, televised news-reports and a selection of photographic material. Many were initially critical of the film's subdued opening; stating that more humour from the two leading actresses could possibly have been extracted however, the general consensus would appear to be that the final-act is a true comedic tour de force, comparable in its spirit to the great works of Keaton, Chaplin or Fritzl.
Dramatis personæ
- Megan
In stark contrast to her "BFF" the character of Megan (portrayed by Rachel Quinn) is a precocious social-butterfly ever popular amongst her schoolmates and well known within the local area as a result of her playful ways and giving nature.
- Amy
More timid and less socially capable the character of Amy (Amber Perkins) is a constant companion to Megan; this association is something of a double-edged sword in that it brings with it not only protection from, but also exposure to, varying forms of new and unprepared for experience.
- Josh
The character of Josh is a pretty cool guy. eh knows how to talk to the ladies and doesn't afraid of anything.
Synopsis
Megan and Amy meet an older boy named "Josh"... with hilarious results.
