DoorMouse Review: Hayley Law Is Tremendous In Avan Jogia's Vivid Neo-Noir
Avan Jogia has had a very interesting career. The life of a Nickelodeon kid can send one down many paths, some less fruitful than others. Jogia was that rare child actor who successfully transitioned into “adult” work without a loud announcement of his maturing. His acting career has had him dabble in numerous genres and stories, showing off his natural charisma and talent. In between acting, Jogia has kept busy producing music with his brother and their band Saint Ivory, and writing a book.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Door Mouse tells the story of Mouse , a comic book writer/artist who works at a burlesque bar run by Mama . A friend and fellow burlesque dancer, Doe Eyes , doesn’t show up for work one night, which alerts the already uneasy Mouse to something sinister. Things turn for the worst when another friend, the rad Scottish truth-teller Riz , is snatched outside the bar.
Law left an impression with her performance in Netflix’s short-lived Altered Carbon and as one of the Pussycats in The CW’s Riverdale. Here she plays Mouse, a name possibly inspired by her afro poofs that resemble Mickey Mouse ears. Despite the connection to something as wholesome as Mickey, Mouse could not be any different. She is crude and morose, and despite her appearance and age, she acts like a disillusioned middle-aged man worn down by the world.
Working with a low budget can limit creatives with grand ambitions. However, Jogia’s story lends itself to such limitations. With his lead character being a struggling comic book artist, he adopts cool comic graphics, allowing audiences to see the world through Mouse’s eyes. These graphics are also a fun way to circumvent the cost of staging action set pieces.
First features are immensely important; they can either set someone up for a smooth transition to the big leagues or not. If there is any justice, Door Mouse will garner the attention it deserves for being a well-defined narrative brought to life effectively and efficiently by a talented director whose imagination and creative drive become more evident with each scene.
