Indie Film Alert by Jim McKeown

| 2 Comments

I saw an important indie film tonight.  The Ledge directed by Matthew Chapman, starring Charlie Hunnam, and the beautiful, willowy Liv Tyler.

Hunnam plays a rationalist hero in this thriller with a wild twist at the end.  Terrance Howard plays a police detective who has an epiphany of his own, and Patrick Wilson plays the slimy, smarmy, self-righteous jerk.  Liv Tyler plays…well, she can play anything she wants in my book.

This film is about faith and finding love.  It isn’t showing around here – by that I mean between the Red River and Buda, Texas.  We watched it on the IFC OnDemand channel on Time Warner.  The channel has a special feature “In the Theater.”  It cost 6 bucks, but it was way more than worth it.  Check it out!  10 stars out of 5
