Sonic Cinema Reviews "10 Commandments of Chloe"


Sonic Cinema has written a great review of our recent feature The 10 Commandments of Chloe! They also gave the film an A-! Check it out after the jump:


"Based on the two films of his that I’ve seen, writer-director Princeton Holt has something to say. Of course, a lot of filmmakers have something to say, but I’d be willing to bet that Holt is smarter, more focused than most. With his 2009 film, “Cookies & Cream,” and now, “The 10 Commandments of Chloe,” he has almost completely devoted himself to showing us stories of women along the edges of the entertainment industry, trying to navigate it as best they can.

In “Cookies & Cream,” his main character, a single mother working in adult entertainment, was already a part of the industry, and trying to find a way to have a satisfying personal life in spite of it. In “Chloe,” the title character (played by co-writer Naama Kates) is on the outside looking in. She’s a singer-songwriter who’s come to Nashville to get her foot in the door, but as with all people looking to find success in music, it’s about finding our way in, and accepting that it might take some time. Chloe meets similar people, artists on the fringes, just trying to survive, and also meets a person (Brandon, played by Jason Burkey) she finds herself drawn to."
