The Shadows (2014)
Looks like a great quality movie for a 1960's 'narnia' or shadow and bone.

Normally I don't review these films. This one, I initially thought was a 1960's Narnia film because of the 3 minute intro. I was surprised that it was a 2014 film. Irish film, and clearly based on narnia, and the storyline is intriguing. Like 1960's films, it moves slow and uses contrast and shadow of dramatic black and white films. The witches crown reminds me of the necklace Arwen wears. But the dialogue is hard to understand in the beginning. The witch is like an Evil Eve from a dark Eden. 8 minutes in it has a scene reminiscent of Halloweentown. Similar to Netflix's 'shadow and bone' series about the books of the same name.
