In Her Shoes - critical review


So movie number 2 on a Trans-Atlantic flight...

'In Her Shoes'...

I think these two images, from a colour script point of view, sum up the emotional journey that the two sisters go on. Darkness and separation, to light and connection.
There's some great moments of personal and sibling frustration throughout, and I particularly like the straightforward yet slightly cynical nature of the grandmother, played by Shirley Maclaine.
I found this film to be hopeful and to carry some depth and weight, when dealing with a storyline of personal growth...
It's visually very pleasing too...particularly the alfresco informal wedding scene at the end!
