Reflections Trailers

When Carol looks into a mirror -- any mirror -- she sees images that horrify and repulse her. She's not a Medium, she's not a Ghost Whisperer, she's a frightened young woman on the edge of madness. Will the handsome stranger who offers to help turn out to be her salvation, or her final vision of terror?

I saw this movie a few months ago...just now getting around to posting a comment. Saw it at a festival in Los Angeles. I was there to support another film, but ended up voting for this one because I liked it so much. Its beautifully made - not the kind of film you normally get the chance to see. The best part is the ending. I was most impressed by the performances - somehow in such a short time you find yourself going through so many emotions - anticipation, empathy, fear, peace, suspicion, revulsion and even laughter - but it never feels forced. The cast is made up of familiar faces. Great actors that I hope to see more of. The performance of Jim Beaver was unexpected - very different from his usual characters - and I loved what Adrienne Wilkinson did with this complex character and challenging part. The movie wouldn't have worked it you didn't feel for Carol and root for her. I'd like to see Reflections again - I hope it gets a DVD or other kind of public release where I can find it a second time.

I caught this short film at a festival in Virginia. The primary premise of the film is that the main character sees horrible events from the past or future in every reflective surface.This film surprised me with its combination of a person who's life is defined by a disturbing acceptance/expectation of the worst in everything and the life long psychological trauma that leaves her unable to do anything about it. The main main character (portrayed by Adrienne Wilkinson)expertly exudes an aura of defeat even when she as she seeks help.Without trying to give anything away. The progression of the film follows a surprising, yet possibly inevitable path that has to be seen to be truly appreciated. I will definitely see this film again.

i was lucky enough to catch this movie today. it is a great and original story and has great acting in it, particularly the lead actress Adrienne Wilkinson.All movies are of course open to interpretation, but I really felt that the cast captured exactly my thoughts about the movie. It was a great treat to see this short film . I also loved the way the subject matter was a new twist. There are many tragic moments that make up the life of the main character, and yet the ending , whilst many may see as a tragedy, I found a strange sense of hope in. It was a really thought provoking and entertaining piece. I will be going to see it again.

I saw this film last Saturday night along with some other films and I have to say That Reflection was by fare the best film that I saw that night the cast and the crew did an outstanding Job it was a well written story and the actress that plays Carol ( Adrienne ) makes you really feel for this poor woman and what she has to live with each and ever day and how hard it must be on her dealing with what she sees each time she sees her Reflection in any thing and let me tell you The guy that plays her door man did a great job of creeping you out. . This film I think would make a great TV series . Its a little Creepy and leaves you on the edge of Your seat not knowing what poor Carol might see next time she see her REFLECTION . The only thing ill say about the ending is you will have to see it for your self's because I don't want to give to much away about it .
