Re-run of N.Z. thriller
Annie Whittle (above) in a playful mood with her son (Christopher Brown) in “Trial Run,” which returns to Christchurch tomorrow for a re-run at the Academy. The film, written and directed by Melanie Read,
had a very short season at the Savoy last year, despite favourable reviews by most critics nationwide. Ms Read tries to inject a strong feminist line throughout “Trial Run,” but this does not distract too much from the film as a
light thriller about a woman (Whittle) who moves to a secluded beach house to undertake a photographic study of penguins. While there, she is also training for a long-distance run, and continually disturbed by mysterious goings-on around the house.
