Summary: Gritty and Realistic Portrait of Street Life
Review: After recently seeing "Squeeze" for the first time I was in awe at how realistic this film was, and how much I could relate to what went on in the film, partially to the fact that it was filmed in and around my neighborhood in Dorchester, MA. As someone who has lived in this. community for 26 years I can tell you this movies is as real as it gets. "Squeeze" chronicles the lives of three inner city youths who hang out at a gas station all day and pan handle for change until one one of the youths is harassed by the neighborhood thug/drug dealer. His pride hurt he decides to get revenge on one of the thugs crew members, which escalates to heights the youths hadn't expected. The acting is superb and the story realistic (take it from someone who knows first-hand). I highly recommend this film to anyone who want's to see how things truly are on the street

Summary: Gritty and Disturbing
Review: Squeeze was a great movie about three youths coping with life in Dorcester Mass, a less than nice part of Boston. I found it very realistic, and a scary portrayal of street life. It disturbed me very much. It was very insightful, and a must see for anyone interested in the inner cities.

Summary: Harrowing, yet hopeful
Review: This independent film portrays the many fears and challenges associated with today's adolescents. Patton-Spruill vividly recounts how three youth (a/k/a "PG-13 Crew") become involved with gangs, drugs and violence. Considering the age and the harrowing accounts portrayed in the film, one begins to realize the impressionability of youth in general. Consequently, Patton-Spruill enables the viewer to understand the reasons behind the youth's decisions, and how easily they were trapped. However, getting them out alive is even harder, if not impossible. Patton-Spruill incorporates how the community can help these youth and provides hope for the future.
