Shadows on the Wall

Writer-director Michael Clowater and his cast fill the screen with sparky attitude and offbeat character touches that are both funny and honest.

Rated: 4/5

What She Said

Being true to oneself, no matter the cost, the effect we have on others, suffering and redemption, death and mercy make a strong brew, kind of a bumpkin Gothic realist film about the human condition.

Rated: 4/4
