Last year, I covered Queen of Hearts: A Twin Peaks Fan Film, an impressive undertaking and a clear labor of love from filmmaker Cameron Cloutier. The multi-part series focused on FBI Agent Dale Cooper (Nico Abiera)'s history with his partner Windom Earle (Paul Griffith) and Earle's wife Caroline (Charlotte Roi) as well as Annie Blackburn …

TCFF Indie Film Review: SOLD OUT (2021)

I love music-themed movies, so I was excited to see SOLD OUT. Somehow I did not realize the Minnesota-connection until I started watching this movie, which opens with a snowy Minneapolis skyline. Strangely-enough, I warmed up to this movie right away. It centers on a down-on-his-luck construction worker John (Sam Bardwell) who wants to pursue …

Guest Review: CHRISTINE (2016)

Written/Directed By: Antonio Campos Cast: Rebecca Hall, Tracy Letts, J. Smith-Cameron, Michael C. Hall Runtime: 1 hr 59 minutes Depression and suicide do not make pretty subjects for a film. It is easy to produce a voyeuristic essay that exploits someone’s despair and self-destruction, but portraying tragedy without sensationalising or trivialising it is as tough as …
