The Secret
2007
In the wake of a tragic accident, the body of 16-year-old Samantha Marris (Olivia Thirlby) serves as a resting place for her dead mother's lingering spirit (Lili Taylor), drastically shifting the dynamic between the teen girl and her still-grieving father (David Duchovny). Swiss-born director Vincent Perez makes his English-language debut with this supernatural drama based on the Japanese film Himitsu.
Synopsis compliments of Netflix
Supernatural, Thriller
Both David Duchovny and Olivia Thirlby do a good job in this interesting character driven drama. The plot is simple and straightforward, but it is produced well and the conclusion is satisfying.
