Chrystal (2004)
Very good thought-provoking film making

Saw it at the premier and was very impressed. the film has a spirit and a look to it that lingers. Although not all of the elements gelled, the acting is superb, the camera work is excellent and the soundtrack is haunting. There are some well constructed comedic scenarios, colorful characters and moving dialogue. The pacing could be increased and a few of the detours removed for a tighter product, but it is a superior effort and leads us to expect great things from Mr. McKinnon. If you enjoyed slingblade, mulholland drive or any other non-formulaic films you will be pleased with paying for your ticket. Otherwise, stick with queen latifah's latest.
