Review of Breathe In (2013) by Joe Morgenstern for Wall Street Journal — 02 Apr 2014
Mr. Doremus is an exceptional director of actors; almost every scene in Breathe In comes alive, with or without the help of music. But the film needs more help than it gets from the script, which turns on facile coincidence and dwindles in originality as it moves toward its climax.
Next time around, let's hope this gifted filmmaker hangs his characters' lives on stronger dramatic bones.
