Sharply uneven, Miller's debut is a grim, occasionally haunting Southern Gothic tale about mental illness seen from the POV of a young girl whose childhood evokes both dreams and demons; Ellen Kuras deservedly won the Sundance Fest's Cinematography Prize

Audience Reviews for Angela

Jun 17, 2006

Completely taken by suprise by this (I picked it up for 99p with a cover plugging Vincent Gallo, who's in it for about 2 minutes). Miranda Stuart Rhyne is quite brilliant as Angela and looking on IMDB, I can only hope she returns to the craft. Miller also deserves special credit for her deft yet delicate storytelling.
