Review of Into the Forest (2016) by Andrew J — 21 Mar 2017

So many reviews go into the plot and the shortcomings of this movie, so I won't go into this here. I found it a poignant drama where people don't do everything correctly, and make mistakes, a lot of them.

I found myself asking a lot of questions about what wasn't talked about in the movie, like practical details, but was distracted by the lush landscape and sisterly drama. I found that the writing really shines there.

Also, the reactions to the rape seem very realistic, by both female actors. I am looking forward to reading the book now.
