Review of White Lightnin' (2009) by Suzannah F — 20 Mar 2010
Very well acted and beautifully shot, I found it very difficult to actually enjoy this film because the subject matter was so numbingly grim. There were moments of dark comedy that I enjoyed and the performance of Hogg was, at times, captivating and chilling.
The West Virginia setting was apocalyptic and utterly believable too. It just wasn't my kind of film, and I don't say that very often about something that has so many obvious qualities.
