Viewing Notes

My second film at CCFF 2016. What an intense movie. Great performances by Ellen Page and Evan Rachel Wood. Really good movie only hampered by a poor decision at the end that I’m sure was in the book but just wtf. I enjoyed the Q&A with the director. Spoke with her afterwards about the amazing sound design and how it plays a huge role in the movie.

Probably in my top ten for the year so far. Just wish it didn’t have that ending.
