Sacred Vow

I found this movie to be most interesting in the middle, when the main drama develops and is presented through nicely stylized long camera shots. Pity that it hurries too obviously to the conclusive moralization. If only was the director/writer able to go on bit longer with ambiguity and open endedness, it could serve his goals much better.

The main cast is performing well with outstanding Shawn Stevens. Dialog sequences and narrative style is quite suggestive and realistic except some out-of-the-schoolbook wisdom said by pastor, which sounded way too much omnipotently detached and forced in the context. Minor flaws are however easily to be forgiven here since this movie is overall very good, original and refreshing. Looking forward to see more stuff from the director
