Yr Ymadawiad (2015)
Beautifully Haunting Story
Two family tragedies merging into one haunting tale! I loved this movie. I had a feeling it was going somewhere, but I couldn't see how deep the plot went until the final scene when the entire story came together for me. I literally caught myself gasping at the end. I haven't seen a movie in a long time where I sat and pondered each scene and the entire plot for a good while after it had ended. I very much enjoyed this movie!
Reunion (1994)
Interesting movie, spooky, but casting was very poor!
The story line is what compelled me to watch the movie. I was genuinely spooked every time the boy showed up, but there were certain problems that made it very unrealistic.
The casting makes it totally unbelievable. Marlo Thomas was 57 years old when this was filmed, and she looks it too. We are supposed to believe she gave birth to the twins at the age of 52??? Frances Sternhagen (the Grandmother) was 64 years old in 1994, which of course is appropriate for the movie and Marlo Thomas, her daughter-in-law, is 7 years younger.
I have always loved Marlo Thomas. She has been a very good actress as far as I'm concerned, but when I see a practically elderly woman playing a new mother - and I notice that a lot lately - it bothers me. Are they afraid to admit their age???? I am forty-six and proud of it, so it bothers me, as if they are trying to hide it.
