boring, pretentious and above all irritating

where to start on a review of this failure? maybe, to correspond with the movie, with the trivial: I found the piano score super-irritating. Now, it wouldn't have bothered me so much of more was going on in the movie. To move to the other extreme: if the events of the story (both in the past and in the present) were laid end to end, they would be boring. The movie hides most of them and muddles up the rest, thus holding a determined viewer's attention just to find out what the hell is/was going on.

What's real and what's imagined? Some bad stuff happened. At the end, who cares?

Bereaved widow deals with a mystery while caring for her demented mother.

This film, which is very relevant to today's schools' frightening reality of shootings and too-frequent headlines which are tragically no longer shocking or infrequent, has an eerie feel to it with sub-plots that intertwine with the main theme. The dramatic change that one such event made in our heroine's life could happen to anyone, anytime. The music, written and performed by Corbett Lunsford sets the stage beautifully and is woven very smartly into the film. Grace McPhillips who wore many hats in the making of this file, including lead actress, as well as the other actors in the film did a wonderful job, very convincing and painfully real. Kudos to all involved!
