Hagrid M Feb 25, 2017 Still Technically have yet to review a 2017 movie and I seem to gone backwards two years. I think it is the first proper review of an Indi film BUT I think there was one way back when I started these reviews....either way this is BARE. A story line that has been done before, A young girl names Sarah (Dianna Agron) lives in a small Nevada desert town with her mother and works as a cashier. Has a dead beat boyfriend and then town is basically on a loop cycle of the same normal life being lived. Till one day a co-worker gets her fired where she meets a drifter girl, Pepper (Paz de la Huerta), Sarah fascinated by Pepper, is drawn into her way of living quickly experiencing everything that comes with it. She realizes not long after though this life is dangerous and not something you can just simply hide away. The pacing is very slow for something I am use to, but it wasn't in a look at your watch kind of slow. The movie moves along well enough that the story and actors make you want to stay invested. Definitely GREAT cinematography! There is a scene in the desert where Sarah is taken something and is having what we can assume is the "rush" that comes with it and it is something that really sticks out. The Reno scene at the casino is very similar. Very well shot movie. Dianna Agron, I love Dianna. No secret there, Glee, I Am Number Four, The Family and probably anything else she is in....except The Hunters even then I stayed to see her scenes..... anyway. I think she needs to be noticed more for main stream films. Gone to a completely different place from Glee, Veronica Mars and Heroes, being typecast as a pretty cheerleader and gone to another level. Plays it as a completely innocent normal girl who is then stripped of her innocence. Never heard of Paz de la Huerta before but she does a really great job in this. As a Drifter, Dealer/User character. Feeling that this is exactly the way it would be. Not to say there isn't other actors or actresses in this but it just really shows off the two main leads talents. Natalia Leite has done it very well possibly has experienced this in real life before to be that insightful or is just really good at re telling a story of others accounts. So Bare, actually a decent film if your into Indie Films, wasn't to sure about what to rate or even say about it, thinking it might be a 2 1/2 but having gone over the points I think it deserves a look and a 3 to go along with it. 3 Stars.
