Alone With Her
Review: Alone With Her
Don’t be turned off by the short running time (79 minutes), believe
me it is plenty. Not since Hitchcock’s Rope has a film made you feel
this caught up in something horrible without giving you so much as a second’s
breather. The crime is in your face the entire time and there is no respite
from it. Maybe this is why the movie feels like it’s two hours long.
Yes, Colin Hanks is in this movie and he plays the part of a psychotic stalker
quite well (i.e. his dad would be proud) but at times he seems to overact
a bit. The real kudos goes to Ana Claudia Talancon. She is the story! Her
unassuming, damaged, naïve and innocent portrayal of a girl who has
no reason to suspect foul play is exquisite.
It’s great to see a movie that works with no special effects and no
insane editing. The idea and the story are enough to keep this raft of a
movie afloat in even the most critical seas.
Alone With Her has a limited release on January 17th.
Stay tuned for updates.
