I’M YOURS (D: Leonard Farlinger) 78 mins. Opens April 20. See times. Rating: NN
Rossif Sutherland (High Life) and Karine Vanasse (Polytechnique) co-star in this trifling two-hander about a Wall Street player who finds himself on a road trip from Manhattan to North Bay after a night with a mysterious woman.
There’s just one problem: if you’re going to build an entire movie around two people sharing the same space, you have to give them compelling things to do, and writer/director Leonard Farlinger (All Hat) never quite makes the characters’ respective secrets and motivations line up in a way that justifies all the drama.
Sutherland and Vanasse are appealing, and they do what they can to get us involved, but they’re working with some pretty thin material here.
