Film Review – Shelter in Solitude

Actress Siobhan Fallon Hogan has enjoyed a steady career in supporting parts, but she took a chance on herself with 2021’s “Rushed,” providing the screenplay for the movie, which offered her an opportunity to play the lead. And she did so wonderfully, helping to guide an unusual understanding of the mourning process that subverted expectations, making for an interesting sit. Hogan returns with “Shelter in Solitude,” which also presents an unusual view of dramatic interactions, once again creating a script that’s more interested in character than formula, which, for this endeavor, involves a relationship between a prison guard and a man dealing with his final days on death row. Director Vibeke Muasya looks to maintain some emotional intensity to the feature, also tasked with detailing a COVID-19 world, but she’s best with performances, finding Hogan once again greatly impressing with her depth and sensitivity, joined by a terrific cast that makes the little moments hit the hardest.
