| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin CovertJacob presents the area and its people as oft-overlooked and underappreciated. He reveals them in ways that are richly embroidered with character and small-town details. |
| FILMINK (Australia)Travis Johnson...a quiet, meditative film that gently but deliberately upends many of the accepted narrative conventions about gender, nature, life and death. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfCaptures specific lives superbly, while examining the universal truths of burgeoning adolescence. |
| Film ThreatBobby LePireCold November isn't entirely flawless but thanks to beautiful cinematography and strong directing, coupled with a brilliant cast, it overcomes its flaws. |
| User ReviewBill BWonderful! Kept me totally engaged from start to finish. |
| User ReviewRhonda WThis is a unique coming of age story in more than one way. First, it is almost devoid of male presence. It celebrates a culture not many see or even know exsist in the lower 48, subsistance hunting. It portrays guns in a completely different light. Can you name a full length feature film where guns were not used to kill people? Lastly,, the matriarch hunting camp, which is rare even in hunting culture. The story of Florence is not singular but is rare. Loved the movie! I had the opportunity to see it with an audience from the area the movie depicts. They LOVED it. |
| User ReviewDavid RCold November is a sober yet joyful look at Florence, a young woman, coming of age. Set in matriarchal family of hunters she manages to come to grips with her place in the structures of finitude, family, and the food chain. There's a brief terror the moment you realize you are born to suffer and die. Cold November dares us to return to the shock of that moment by inviting us into the unique life of Florence, a 12 year old waking to adulthood. The power of the film lies in this - the sensitive nuance of this brief moment in one adolescent's life, carries such depth and authenticity, the art of cleaning a deer becomes a dare to face your own end. Adults live in a disenchanted world, aware we are in the process of becoming worm food. At some point our naiveté understanding of the world dies and we left with the challenge to truly life before we die. In Cold November you meet three generations of matriarchs in the middle passing down the keys to living, all the while their veracity is up for grabs. This story of trauma, family, shame, and breakthrough should not be missed |
| User ReviewAndy PCold November is a deeply moving experience that combines themes of family, empowerment, maturity and grit to create a captivating picture of a young girl's transition to womanhood -- and the family dynamic that surrounds her. By harvesting her first deer, the thoughtful and at times meditative portrayal of 'Florence' by newcomer Bijou Abas, will draw viewers into a slice of rural midwestern life that may seem foreign to some at first, but is ultimately relatable to nearly everyone. Director Karl Jacob, creates space for us to feel the pain of loss, the mystery of nature, the longing for belonging and the love of family in what is one of the great indie films of this year. Highly recommended! |
| User ReviewEzrad DA well made feminist film that shatters and American stereotype and adds a new story to the gun conversation. |
