Review of I Will Follow (2010) by Michael T — 29 Jul 2013

A woman grieving the loss of her aunt is helped by a number of people who visit her during the course of a day to move on. Touching and deep, DuVernay's film still cannot help feel a little lacking in urgency and even a little overstretched despite its length which doesn't exceed the hour by very long and makes it seem like a longer episode of a daytime drama.

There are some nice touches which redeem it throughout, particularly a musical element which acts as an admirable macguffin, and an inobtrusive style of photography which heightens the power of the performances.
