7/10
showcase for Mia McKenna-Bruce
13 January 2024
It is an incredibly old story refreshed and brought up to date. A polished indie film with not a hair out of place or a camera angle that jars. More amazing is that, by the end, the viewer realizes that the entire movie was a showcase for Mia McKenna-Bruce who, as the cliche goes, had begun delivering entire scenes using only her eyes. By the end of film, she does something equally amazing, she unleashes her natural beauty to express silent rage in a way that suggests she was deliberately masking it earlier, an effect which makes the end result even more remarkable.
