I'm not sure I can imagine anyone else playing Ainsley than the marvelous Kelsey Gunn.

Little Jar operates as a simple but charming and whimsical tale ... In Little Jar, the focus rests on that period from the first lockdown announcement as seen through the eyes of misanthrope Ainsley .. Little Jar is a heartfelt feature debut

Litte Jar is nothing short of amazing for a low-budget, independent film with a five-person crew.

Though the plot is a little thin to warrant its 90-minute runtime, there is no doubt that Little Jar is a prime example of how creativity can flourish even in the most uncertain of times.

For an indie film made by a small crew, I gotta say it was pretty damn good. The writing was great although contained, the use of the limited space was well executed (mostly shot in one location), and the camera work and directing were well thought out. Most of all, the acting was fantastic all around but especially with Kelsey Gunn. She does a great job carrying what is essentially a one-woman show. Seriously, hats off to her. Overall it's a charming movie that's funny and delightful. Do yourself a favor and watch this film.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

I love this little movie! Everything from the performances, which were raw and relatable, to the charm of the location, the amazing original score, and the overall cinematography and direction managing to not be repetitive in basically one location with one woman. It transported me to the beginning of the pandemic...in a nostalgic and positive way... the loneliness and uncertainty that I felt living alone. It isn't about the pandemic, but more about friendship and a woman's journey to finding connection. I was truly impressed with what a small group of people could do while I was at home just baking bread. Brava Little Jar... I'm gonna go cry now.
