The poster from the new documentary movie that tells the life story of a drunkard and his friends. – OK, candid shot from my office. I just heard some loud voices from the street and shot this from my window. The idea for the title came from the stunning Drunkard´s Prayer album by Over the Rhine... and then I just needed to find some C word that would fit. Not a native Enlish speaker - companionship was the best I could find.

The title is awkward but the photo is smooth as silk. I want to see the movie about these people. It reminds me of Lords of Flatbush. Great angle, great subjects.
I really like the photo and the title is pretty close to good. the last word just seems a bit off to me. the pov is great. could deffinantly see this on a poster. I think maybe I would crop out the car.
great perspective and tones. as a candid shot, this is great. it stands on its own merit. however, WRT the challenge itself, i'm not so sure. the thing the guy is drinking looks more like a red bull or some other energy drink than an alcoholic beverage, and i see little else that indicates drunkenness or prayer.
I really like this image. The perspective and colors are good. If I weren't voting on it for a possible movie poster, I might score it higher. I'm a very lateral thinker, but the title just doesn't sound anything close to a movie name to me. Maybe I'm being too harsh, but I think the image and title have to work together to create that movie thing, for this particular challenge. To me, it's not all about the photo, but the two working together. It's a tough one.
