"Out and About" is an unconventional tale about a middle-aged man trying to come to terms with his life over the course of an afternoon walk through his hometown. Distinctive in both style and substance and told virtually in real time, the story weaves together the protagonist's inner monologue with conversations he has with the people he encounters along the way. Raw, brutally honest, poignant and funny, "Out and About" explores the contrast between our inner and outer selves, the conflict between old dreams and new realities, and one man's search for meaning as he wrestles with aging, success and failure in America, and his ultimate place in the world.

We watch hundreds of movies every year and for 2023 this is among our favorites. The writing and acting are superb and the lead character's stroll through his neighborhood is really a revisitation of his life. The interplay between what he says to those he encounters while on his walk and what we hear him thinking about those same characters provides some marvelous insights into human nature.

Callahan's script delves into the contradictions and imperfections of everyday life, exploring the dichotomy between our internal thoughts and the image we project to the outside world.

I commend Callahan for having the guts to enthrall an audience with a virtually plotless movie.

The writer-director-actor-star is not a household name for most of us, but his assured hold on the helm and his character’s interesting reflections on life make me want to see more – both in front of and behind the screen.

Spending 83 minutes in this dude's head is an insufferable experience, and the people around him aren't much more tolerable.

Now here is a little movie that deserves a big audience. This winner of three regional U.S. film festivals takes the simple premise of a walk in real time and turns it into a rumination on life…a must see gem.
