Miller’s Girl is an exceptional movie that shows two people crossing a line that leads to inappropriate behavior and devastating consequences. The movie has extremely complex characters, a wonderfully written plot, beautiful cinematography, great music, and keeps you trying to figure out whether these characters are good or bad.

The audience has to decide what they think happens, and the meaning behind the final scene. I highly recommend this movie.
