The Mourning (2015)
8/10
This deserves more praise than it is getting...
7 February 2021
I set last night aside to watch this on Amazon Prime, as one of my favorite indie actresses Brooke Lewis Bellas was promoting it. All I can say is that this deserves more praise than it is getting. I watch a lot of independent films and this looks like a way higher budget with real professional actors, direction, locations, art direction, camerawork, etc. I do agree the story is a bit confusing, but the alternate universe element made sense to me by the end. As always, I love Brooke Lewis Bellas in this cute sassy role with some comedy then transitioning to moments of fear. I thought the acting was really good altogether and mentions should go to the always great Louis Mandylor and I am not familiar with the lead Michael Rene Walton, but he seems like a talent to watch for. Again, if you want a solid indie film to watch on Prime, I suggest this.
