Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

boblipton Norman McLaren offers one of his abstract pieces of animation, working in collaboration with Evelyn Lambart with some some electronic music by Maurice Blackburn. It consists of a series of vertical lines which wander from the right to the left and back again, growing more numerous as they pass over each other over a monochrome background which changes color.They suggest the strings of a musical instrument, if they suggest anything... or perhaps they suggest nothing. It's a simple contemplative abstract, a purely experimental movie, hypnotic and meditative in its evolutions. For the two minutes that it lasts, it's fascinating.... and then it's gone.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Lines: Vertical" is the counterpart to Norman McLaren's "Lines: Horizontal" and again he worked together with BAFTA Award nominee Evelyn Lambart. So yeah what is there to say. You will see white vertical lines in here from start to finish, for 6 minutes. The background changes in color on a couple occasions and you hear a soothing tune. this film is certainly not for everybody and I am afraid that this does also include myself. I found it a fairly boring watch, but if you like experimental films, then you may very well enjoy this one. I have seen several way worse experimental movies. Nonetheless overall I did not find this a satisfying watch and give it a thumbs down. Not recommended.
