I didn't have great expectations for this movie. It had a high IMDb rating with only 28 people voting. But what a pleasant surprise it turned out to be. The story was a bit scattered, much like the main character Lacey Huxley (Jocelyn Hudon). I thought her performance was absolutely riveting. I'm glad I watched this film and definitely feel it deserves more attention.
Lacy's life is a mess. In the description it says she's suffering from her mother's suicide, but I don't recall it even being mentioned in the film. However, she's on a mission of self-destruction. She goes out boozing at the local watering holes. Shows up late for her jobs as a photographer. And has to deal with her aging grandparents who she lives with. And to make matters worse, her old boyfriend of 6 years moves in a couple doors down with his new fiancee.
This is one of those films that constantly keep you guessing where it's heading. The movie is loaded with interesting characters especially her Grandpa Robert (Robin Gammell), who's a sweet, good-hearted gentleman, and her Grandma Martha (Annie Abbott), who's suffering from dementia. You'll recognize several other actors as well.
If you're looking for something a bit different, I can't recommend this movie strongly enough. I just don't know why it isn't better known. And it's one I'll be watching a second time for sure.
