Review of The Midnight Swim (2015) by Scribehard — 25 Jul 2015
With The Midnight Swim, Sarah Adina Smith makes a formidable first impression, but with so much happening you get the sense she used her directorial debut to swing for the fences lest she not get another chance to bat.
Still, it is undeniably hypnotic, leaving plenty to ponder, both visually and thematically, and I suspect a second viewing might offer a different experience – one full of little clues that may have been missed the first time.
Regardless, Smith is a filmmaker to keep an eye on, and one who deserves another film.
