There's an unconvincing last-act twist, but this is the movie "Little Children" wanted to be.Full Review
Sharp dialogue, idiosyncratic characters and a wickedly brilliant structure that subtly derails expectation make Laura Smiles a rarity among mellers.Full Review
It casts an increasingly hypnotic spell, thanks in no small measure to Wright -- a fearless actress (and the real-life wife of writer-director Ruscio) who brings this sometimes despicable, often heartbreaking character to life with every atom of her being.Full Review
Ruscio's script is grim and darkly funny, but the big attraction is Wright's right-on performance. She's an actress waiting to be discovered.Full Review
Wright's haunting performance is the anchor that keeps Ruscio's film from vanishing down a rabbit hole.Full Review
