Moments of Clarity (2016)
Loved this quirky comedy!
I absolutely loved watching the Moments of Clarity film! This quirky comedy follows the story of a rebellious pastor's daughter and an eccentric oddball forming an unlikely friendship as they spontaneously pack up and hit the road leaving their hometown for the very first time in their lives. This coming-of-age story is witty and whimsical as well as beautiful as it perfectly captures Danielle and Claire's (played by Lyndsy Fonseca and Kristin Wallace respectively) transformation from adolescence into womanhood. I was swept away into the magical and playful world that director Stev Elam created with the beautiful and captivating set design as well as the witty and comedic narrative. Although it is a light hearted tale of two friends on the search of self discovery, this film touches upon serious social issues perfectly, truly making me contemplate darker topics. I thoroughly enjoyed this incredible artsy film and I absolutely believe it is worth the watch.
Pacific Standard Time (2016)
Excellent sexy crime thriller
After watching the Blood in the Water film, I was thrilled by the mysterious nature of the film that pushed the audience to question the character's motives and left me on the edge of my seat awaiting for the next unexpected plot twist. This meticulously crafted dramatic thriller set in the striking location of a Los Angeles modern mansion paints a sleek and sexy scenery for the chaos that ensues as a shady and suspicious friend named Freedgood pays an unexpected visit on couple Veronica and Percy's (played by Willa Holland and Alex Russell respectively) ordinary summer vacation. Not only do the three become entangled in a manipulative love triangle, but also their greed and desire cause them to betray those who they always trusted. I was completely captivated by the excellent cast of characters, since their chemistry with one another was apparent, and I was seriously impressed with the well-written dialogue that allowed me to be completely immersed in the scene as if I was alongside the characters as their lives are flipped upside down. I absolutely recommend watching this incredible film!
