Just One Drink is a 2015 American psychological thriller short film written, produced and directed by Andrew de Burgh, who also stars opposite Barbara Nedeljakova.
Steve Pintolivo (Andrew de Burgh), a recent university graduate, receives a Facebook message from a beautiful woman named Tamara Nolan (Barbara Nedeljakova) inviting him to her Hollywood apartment for a New Year's Eve party.
A flashback to one year prior and Steve, dressed in a trench coat and holding a knife in his hand, sits on his bed berating Andrei Dzagoev (Harwood Gordon), a former underling of Stalin for murdering his grandfather Ruslan Voronin, a rebel leader, in the Second World War.
The performances really help “Just One Drink” packing some really great turns, including from Nedeljakova, who presents dimensions that she manages to convey in only eighteen minutes.
"[8] Staci Layne Wilson of Dread Central praised the film, stating that "The short is well-acted, the dialogue is up to par, here’s gore galore, and it’s intriguing enough to turn into a feature.
