A sweet career housewife has been married to the same crotchety man for 40 years and she just can't take another day of it. She starts to poison his food - just to see if he might change. When he falls gravely ill, both are awakened to the raw reality of a life or death choice.


I'm pleased to say that i've seen this film several times and enjoy it very much! While most movies these days hardly state anything of significance, "White Knuckles" deals uniquely with forgiveness all while disguising its presence in a revenge story that is subtle yet shockingly painful. Not to mention, the film is also jam packed with intricate subtext dealing with moral dilemma, spirituality, and transcendence, which are brave & different themes to explore in modern day films.

The performances are also very raw and human which play nicely to a plot that unfolds deadly motives in a minimalist fashion. In addition, the music in the film compliments the imagery wonderfully, especially the wide nature shots. All in all, the movie delivers it delivers on numerous levels (performances, story, music, and theme) and it does a fine job taking the audience into a dark world only then to slowly bring them out into a meaningful catharsis. When you watch the film, you'll discover for yourself that it's a gem among indies!
