The Independent Critic Reviews "Miranda"

Check out this great review of Kent Sutton's short film version of "Miranda" by Richard Propes at The Independent Critic!



"Inspired by a true story, Miranda is about a woman with a secret.

Miranda (Maria Guzman) is engaged to Arthur (Derek M. McAllister), a beautiful young woman with a future that looks promising. Behind her trained facial expressions, 25-year-old Miranda is hiding a secret known only between herself and Arthur.

Miranda is a victim of Intimate Partner Abuse (IPA).

The latest production from the folks at One Way or Another Productions, Miranda vividly depicts the story of an abusive relationship where the victim is a woman experiencing verbal, physical, emotional and economic abuse from Arthur, a man who seemingly hides his abusive patterns from the rest of the world. According to the Miranda website, the film depicts the relationship of Miranda and Arthur from a psychological and behavioral point of view, showing the subtle and not so subtle manipulative processes an abuser so deftly uses in gaining control of their victim and, indeed, depicting vividly and accurately just how the cycle of abuse and violence perpetuates itself."
