“What a strange little movie we have in the under-the-radar Canadian supernatural drama u0026quot;Lavenderu0026quot;. It may be a low budget indy, but the story, acting and cinematography are all of high caliber.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAustralian beauty Abbie Cornish is Jane, a woman with a horrific past that she can not remember. Cornish resonates as a wife and mother struggling to recall unthinkable events from a tragic childhood. Although she plays a gal from the American Midwest, her indigenous Aussie accent does seep through on occasion. But that doesnu0026#39;t detract from a solid performance as the anchor of a uniformly fine cast which includes veteran pros Dermot Mulroney and Justin Long.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnd one other thing. Watching u0026quot;Lavenderu0026quot; may well result in you never again looking at unexpected presents wrapped in pretty red ribbon as a welcome surprise.”
