LATEST FESTIVAL REVIEWS

Review: Sweetwater
A watchable, derivative revenge Western with some colorful moments but no great distinction.

Review: Afternoon Delight
A contrived and raucous comedy that also wants to be taken seriously but might play as an adult girls'-night-out attraction.

Review: The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman
An atmospheric feature that sets out to tackle big questions of love and destiny.
