Don’t Look Back Now is the story of Keisha (Joy Taylor), a woman who has moved across
country to escape her creepy ex-boyfriend stalker, Tom (Kevin Highsmith). However,
mysterious things keep happening to the people in Keisha’s life, and the authorities don’t
believe her. But there’s one thing nobody knows – she’s got a secret that will make anyone
coming to harm her regret it – especially Tom. This thriller is an exciting roller coaster ride
that constantly keeps the audience guessing.
Director Juliette Cho knows exactly how to manipulate the camera to capture every shadow
and peripheral movement, keeping the viewer on edge. The close-up shots feel
claustrophobic, like the perspective is skewed. For any other movie this might be annoying,
but for this one, it helps put the viewer in Keisha’s suspicious shoes very well. With a
running time of 98 minutes, the pacing is quick and efficient, and Cho uses cinematography
deftly to show the quick and jerky passage of time from Keisha’s perspective.
The performances are rock solid all the way through. Joy Taylor is brittle and violent,
simmering below the surface with rage. You can see the toll this stalking experience has had
on her in every twitch of her eye and clench of her jaw. The strength she displays once the
film shifts into the darker, triumphant second act is a wonder to behold. Kevin Highsmith
gives off just the right vibe of charming and sinister as Tom, effortlessly shifting his entire
performance between sweet and suddenly dangerous.
This is a tense thrill rise that will not disappoint fans of Joy Taylor orr this genre in general.

It can be difficult to write sometimes, especially if you are creating something brand new. It
is even harder when you must write while following certain rules. Some writers thrive when
there are limits, like poets. Many poetry forms follow very specific rules, like sonnets or
elegies: you can’t just throw some words on a page and call it a haiku. On the other hand,
some successful poets really enjoy breaking the rules. They will reuse to use proper
punctuation or follow any sort of structure. So then what good are the rules if you can just
break them and still succeed? That doesn’t make any sense. I guess that is why I am not a
poet.

has entered the environment as pollution. As a material, plastic has many advantages.
However, it is difficult to recycle because popular single-use and convenience items, such as
packaging and water bottles, are low in quality and value when recycled. Part of the magic of
