Sword of Trust - SIFF 2019 Capsule Review

The Movie: Sword of Trust

The Director: Lynn Shelton

The Cast: Marc Maron, Jon Bass, Michaela Watkins, Jillian Bell, Toby Huss, Dan Bakkedahl, Lynn Shelton

The Review:
Director and co-writer Lynn Shelton proves once again that she is an expert film maker and multi talented artist who isn't afraid to poke fun at just about any topic she can find. This is one of those movies that sort of sneaks up on you with how genuinely funny it is which I believe is in large part due to the brilliant work turned in by the entire cast, including Shelton herself.


Sword of Trust is the official Opening Night Gala selection of the 2019 Seattle International Film Festival.
