Two Ways Home

I unexpectedly found the trailer on YT and I then decided to rent it and I'm so glad I did. The subject matter is touchy and the actress that plays Kathy did an incredible enjoy portraying issues with mental illness. The editing is crisp, the score was fitting as is the editing. I'm giving this a 9.

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.

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.

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.

This movie speaks to everyone on some level. It's treatment of mental illness is delicate yet poignant at the same time. Beautiful plot that is masterfully and richly developed. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this film and would highly recommend it!
