Review of Lost Embrace (2004) by Mandy D — 14 Feb 2009

Interesting concept mostly well executed. the modest, focused setting provides more of a play dynamic than a movie and conveys a claustrophobic vibe that reinforces one of its central themes. and there are great supporting roles across the board --- especially Sonja. but it was hard for me to like the lead character, and that drags the whole thing down a bit.

Love the Ramon vs El Peruano scene. that's inspired storytelling.
