  1. 70
    A rough but boldly imaginative first feature by British-Canadian writer-director Alison Murray.
  2. 50
    Filmmaker Alison Murray drew on her own experiences, but Mouth to Mouth would have benefited from more focus and fewer dance sequences.
  3. Like the homeless kids at its center, Alison Murray's feature debut is passionate, angry and suffering from a serious lack of discipline.
  4. A grim little drama about a young woman's experiences with a left-wing cult, Alison Murray's debut feature suffers from disjointed storytelling and myriad other problems, including a bizarre reliance on modern dance sequences to interrupt the action.

    When Harry(Eric Thal) takes away Sherry's innocence, she has half of her feminine wiles; a half-shaved head, but the older man is lured into temptation nevertheless by her nubile mystique. In cases of sexual misconduct, a man will blame the woman for turning him on. Sherry's partly-bald pate neutralizes this wrongful claim because sex is often more about power than desire. It doesn't matter if Sherry(Ellen Page) has beautiful hair or not. Harry wants to own her. "Mouth to Mouth" is more avant-garde(modern dance replaces dialogue in some instances) than your average run-of-the-mill indie. "Mouth to Mouth" gets interesting when it dawns on the viewer that this neo-collective of free-spirits is actually a cult. Expand
