Gritty thriller
Cold Pressed is an indie thriller about George Leggierie, the owner of a restaurant and an in-demand olive oil label. George's greed leads him to take a deal for his olive oil with a sinister businessman, unknowingly sinking George into a deal with a very dangerous mob-like underworld. Cold Pressed is a gritty film that felt like a throwback to gangster thrillers from the past, right down to the 16mm film grain. The film does a great job of showing that any industry can succumb to greed and turn violent if there's enough money being thrown around. I did recall reading in the news about how some companies were busted for using fake extra virgin olive that was supposedly from Italy, so it was interesting to dive into a fictional story that deals with that. I'd also like to note that I was a big fan of Ted Harvey's performance in the lead role. I'd highly recommend Cold Pressed for anyone looking for a good indie thriller!
You'll never look at olive oil the same
I really like the vibe of Cold Pressed, with its throwback feel an image. At the same time as it feels familiar it's also very fresh as it's told through a lens we don't see often, the olive oil industry. You might think that olive oil is pretty innocent (I did), but not after watching this film. I guess it goes to show corruption can exist anywhere. I was also shocked to find out that things in this film were inspired by real life shenanigans in the olive oil industry. Anyways, for a well done gritty drama that will make you think every time you reach for the olive oil, Cold Pressed is your film.
Unusual subject matter, excellent production value!
Watch this film to be absorbed in the not-oft explored word of olive oil production, and its purity or lack thereof. What starts as a twisting curiosity turns into a dark and violent suspense. I must say I felt happy when the main character, played by Ted Harvey, got what he deserved. He was a selfish, cruel man and the performance by Harvey was absolutely committed. The film twisted into territories I didn't expect and I appreciated that. And I really loved the score. Definitely worth a watch!
Indie Crime Drama with Olive Oil
I loved the new take on the mob story. I also liked the olive oil part of the story. A unique take on the classic mob/crime drama. It is also shot in a way that feels vintage which give the whole piece a strong feel of old mob films. Bravo!
Great Indie Thriller
Cold Pressed is a great indie thrill ride!! It's suspenseful and well done, is a bit of a throwback to gangster movies, but what surprised me the most was the setting of the story within an olive oil company. The performances are awesome and the direction is smart and cutting. I really enjoyed this and definitely recommend it to anyone who loves movies, it's fantastic! Bravo.
