The Counter (2006)
A Work of Art (and Heart) from A Great Young Filmmaker

I caught "The Counter" at the Sacramento International Film Fest, and just had to write about it here. Ms. Wagner's writing and directorial style has attention to detail and truth well beyond her years. I have never been so blown away in under 15 minutes! This is a film beautifully conceived and executed, certainly worthy of all the awards it has garnered. The acting is consistently superb. The set is beautiful and true. Costuming is meaningful and very well-done. Makeup is excellent. Editing is so near perfection that I could not find anyplace where I said to myself "Oh, I would have done it this way instead..." I look forward to seeing more from Lauren Wagner.
