Angela June 5, 2008
Andrew Kerr (Scotland)

Angela is a coming of age film that tells the story of two sisters trapped in a deteriorating family life with a manic-depressive mother and distant father. The older sister (who has visions of the devil) leads them both into various 'practices' such as covering themselves in mud in the river, in an attempt rid themselves of sin and evil.
The film is actually a lot better than I expected it would be. It's one of those compelling movies that seems to grip you until the very end. Mainly because the acting from the child actors, Miranda Stuart Ryne (Angela) and Charlotte Eve Blythe (Ellie) is nothing less than brilliant. Their innocence and nievety has been perfectly captured, portraying their emotions and thoughts. The way that the children conjure up their own world is haunting but again rather gripping. I like the idea that a child's imagination can be a dangerous thing. Even the acting from other cast members is pretty good. Angela is a good, honest film that doesn't try to hide away or glamorise life and childhood.
(For once) I can't think of anything negative to say about the film. While at the same time its hard to describe what makes Angela such a good movie. It's not what I would call enjoyable as such, more disturbing than anything else. There is a lot of hidden depth and meaning in Anglea. But in all honestly I would say that this is definitely a film that you have to watch (rather than read about) to understand and appreciate.

This isn't a run of the mill child into adulthood film, what with the manic depressive mother and a young girl (Angela) who is drifting futher and futher in to her own mind and taking her sister (Ellie) with her. The father starts to take them all to church to try and balance the family, but it only has the opposite effect. It's an oddly compelling movie which did grip me till the end.
