![]() ![]() ![]() I would not really recommend this film, it's not a film anyone NEEDS to see but it's not terrible, the film is good but more would have been better. Elizabeth Olsen has proved her capabilities in this and hopefully will move onto better films. Overall, this film would have been great if they had just finished the story. The way in which this film is shot is great, the saturated colour scheme portrays Martha's bleak perception of life and works wonders for the tone of the film. It just makes you more and more frustrated, especially when the credits begin to roll and you realise that there was no real climax or even a resolution worthy of making this film one of the best of 2011. It deliberately doesn't explain certain things like why the sisters' lives went on such different paths perhaps because they wanted to leave so much of this film's content for the viewers to question. Martha is dead, and her twin sister Giulia, the young daughter of a German soldier, must alone deal with the acute trauma of loss and the fallout from her murder. At some points it feels like the film is trying too hard to be unique. Other performances in the film were pretty weak and the storyline at some points can be weak too. ‘The Town of Light’ is set in the same universe as. PlayStation and GOG digital pre-orders are now live, players pre-ordering Martha Is Dead on PlayStation Store, or PC via GOG, will receive LKA’s award-winning first game, ‘The Town of Light’ - as an instant free download. Elizabeth Olsen was very good and this is a great debut for her. A bonus digital copy of Martha Is Dead for the Steam Store. As the film progresses the flashbacks become longer and her reaction to them becomes more severe but this is as far as the film goes. Each flashback's beginning is similar to the real life situation. It is edited in a very clever way, with flashbacks to memories of the cult dotted throughout. The content is good, the story is of a girl trying to adapt back to normal life after escaping a cult. This film got a lot of praise and was even described as one of the best films of 2011, after watching it I find it hard to see why people would say that. ![]()
