lilydaleJust saw the movie this afternoon.
Pretty good and certainly thought provoking. I liked how it was told in a non narrative way. The switching back and forth between past and present could be a bit confusing but it heightened the suspense of the story. However, it didn't come to any clear resolution for me. Perhaps that was even the point, that Leland's actions were unexplainable, and it's about how we react to such things that are important.
Excellent acting all around. Too bad Lena wasn't featured more, but she was very quietly powerful in her brief scenes.
