REVIEWS

"...spectacular scenic photography." Diane Gordon, Toronto Star "Production is technically solid, even impressive in light of its reported $100,000 budget. Lensor Christopher Ball serves up some picturesque landscape shots that nicely flavor the film's mostly frigid look." Variety "...wonderful movie. Beautiful cinematography ...I love a good mystery that makes me laugh." Web Review "The cinematography is beautiful, and the soundtrack is a mix of East Coast Celtic (Ashly MacIsaac's Sleepy Maggie runs through the film), snippets of classic rock and original music by Creighton Doane. Black Swan is a promising outing for both Ord and Doane." Sandy MacDonald, The Daily News "A real treat-The film really is lovely and quirky with some terrific performances and cinemotograpgy, delightful plot, out loud laughs. A great accomplishment." Filmstock Film Festival
