Similar to Blinded
Clara meets John at a particularly vulnerable time in her life. She is "blinded" by love and he becomes her world. The intense relationship then becomes violent and Clara is forced to take drastic action to protect herself and their son Chris.
<em>'Blinded'</em> is obviously a film of extremely low quality, but I have honestly seen far worse. I can't in good conscience give it a higher rating, though it is more watchable (relatively speaking) than I thought it was going to be. The story is alright and the music is decent. The acting is, again, overtly amateurish. I didn't, mind you, dislike Tahira Natalie Carter as Clara. I'm not saying her performance here is anything all that noteworthy, I just found her to be serviceable. I did feel sadness for the character, which is a positive. Deleon Walters is also minimally OK. I will mention that the sound is unacceptable, the audio dips out in parts and even raises up at one part - admittedly, this could be an issue caused post-creation as it's been moved about and uploaded here and there, who knows. This is clearly a tiny production, so I can't hate on it. On another more pleasant note, how good does Grenada look? A beautiful setting indeed. Here's hoping the country will produce a better film to show off in the future, this one isn't any good but I don't hold any ill-feeling towards it whatsoever.
