Two Ways Home

Two Ways Home" is a low-key indie drama about a family history, going through personal failures, mental health and strong redemption. It is beautifully shot, as well as empathetically-acted and reasonably well-written. Furthermore it benefits from that essential ingredient that makes or breaks many a low-budget independent film - a sense of place. It's a rural Iowa story from start to finish but it works.

What a film! Lots of emotions mixed in with drama and dialogue. This isn't a big budget film but still at a high quality because of the plot and acting. We need more films like this. Heartfelt flick, i'd watch it again.

Started a little slow but by mid-way i was glued to the screen and really drawn in. A really well orchestrated film with not too much to complain about. 8 stars easily.

The movie is extremely well acted especially from a lot of unknowns.

Wonderful look at mental health and how it effects all people around you. Kathy has bipolar and when off the medications she acts crazy. It shows how it destroyed her relationship with her ex and her daughter. You could see why she is messed up as her parents and aunt are complete idiots. Her grandfather himself suffers from PTSD from the war, which one is not clear but he goes into the shakes and all. Finally Kathy acts normal and at the end her grandfather passes but her daughter seems to now like her. I truly enjoyed this indie.

It's on a indie budget but the story is big and that's all that matters. Great acting from everyone involved including the children. I did get emotional in the end so yes this is a bit of a tear jerker but totally worth.
