White Bird in a Blizzard
Kat Connors (Shailene Woodley) is a young woman embracing her newfound sexuality when her glamorous but strange mother Eve (Eva Green) vanishes. At first Kat is excited by her new freedom, distracted by the boy next door (Shiloh Fernandez) and the cop working the case (Thomas Jane). But as disturbing facts about the disappearance surface, the mystery begins to haunt her.
Critic Reviews:
- " Woodley reminds us that she's not just the hippie queen of YA adaptations, but a bracing actress who's not averse to taking some gutty risks. " – Jason Bailey
- " Araki blends film noir-like elements with an engagingly offbeat, Adrian Mole-like look at adolescence. " – Geoffrey Macnab
- " Is cinema broken? How is that a film by a director as significant as Gregg Araki ends up with such a tiny release? And an excellent film, at that? " – Tara Brady
