Reviewer Rating Review
Sober Film Critic James Brown97 - Poignant, hilarious, and sensual are just a few of the words I can use to describe longtime producer James Schamus's first time behind the camera in the director's chair for Indignation. This little indie is a phenomenal movie that really comes out of nowhere and knocks moviegoers' socks off.
