Figure in the Forest

I really wasn't expecting much. I guess that's often when you are surprised the most. I gotta say the acting was good, the story was engrossing, and the scenes were quite beautiful. I could tell that this was made with a very small budget. But after five minutes that awareness disappeared and in fact, that limitation added to the reality and impact of the story. I also loved the fact that this was a quiet movie. It didn't try to overwhelm you with hyper-drama, opting for a softer approach that gave you time to think and made the film much more personal. We need more movies like this. Old fashioned films that put character and story first. I hope that all those involved keep at it. They are appreciated.
