Unintended

This low-key drama involves elements of mystery as a young woman struggles with years of devastation and despair from a childhood incident. She is now in a seriously disturbed state and seems to be facing incipient mental breakdown. The story traces her ordeal with fears, disbelief from others and thwarted memories. Technically the film is very well made and shot (with the DP making the most of the beautiful Hudson Valley scenery). There are excellent performances from the lead players and cast. Elizabeth Lail and Hannah Westerfield are remarkably convincing as the 'older' and 'younger' versions of the main character. The movie is not a thriller or action drama and there are a few stretched coincidences in the plot but overall it holds together as a credible and satisfying story.

The best stories are those that lead the reader, listener or viewer in a way that mimics the unpredictable nature of life. Unintended does just that. Various narratives coalesce into a thread that cathartically resolves itself in unique and suspenseful circumstances. Writing, acting, cinematography and score all well done !

It's spacious and elegant, reminds me of Days of Heaven. Gorgeous cinematography, that elevates Ellenville, New York to a dream-scape.

There's an innocence play, with a nice Hitchcock twist to the story.

Excellent in every way.

Rarely will you see an indie movie match the caliber of a classic Hollywood this way.

Story of accidents happened n make someone unforgivable of herself. Watching it cuz of You TV drama.

This is a lovely, intimate independent film that has surprising twists and turns by a wonderful cast that turns in great, eclectic and emotionally compelling performances. In short, a little gem.
