Two Harbors Wins Eight Awards at Twenty-four Festivals
Critical praise for James Vculek’s award-winning first feature:
“Incredible.” - Best Feature award statement, the Eugene Film Festival
“Funny, haunting and nimble, Vculek’s film belies its humble roots with gorgeous B&W digital video, excellent music by Paul Johnson, and some extraordinary performances by a select handful of the Twin Cities’ finest actors.” – Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival program
“Two Harbors is an unusual, engaging and ultimately beautiful expression.”
- The Minnesota Daily
“A remarkable performance by Alex Cole anchors this strange and subtle tale.” - Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival program.
“The film employs a bleak black-and-white ambience to tease out the inscrutable despair beneath little lives spent in a little place, applying moments of humor and sweetness to make it a uniquely genre-ignoring exercise.” – Minneapolis City Pages
“A darkly comic love story involving junk stores and extraterrestrials [that] takes two or three weird hairpin turns from realistic comedy to surreal humor to tragedy. The performances are stellar. Alex Cole, the lead actor, is phenomenal, and his co-star, Catherine E. Johnson, is great with him.” – Minneapolis Star-Tribune
“Two Harbors took the top prize because it had the strongest writing and acting.”
- Minnesota Film Arts executive and festival director Jamie Hook.
“A clever, understated film.” Michael Nordskog, southofthetaiga.blogspot.com
Two Harbors has just won its eighth award at its 20th festival – an Honorable Mention at the SoCal Independent Film Festival in Huntington Beach, California. Other awards include Best Feature at the Milwaukee International Film Festival, the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival, the Eugene Film Festival, the Victoria (Australia) Festival of Motion Image, and a Silver Eddy award at the Cedar Rapids Independent Film Festival. Other awards were from the Winnipeg Film Festival, the Austin Film Festival, the Fargo Film Festival and the Rural Route Film Festival. Two Harbors was also selected to screen at the Mendocino Film Festival, the Sarasota Film Festival, the Napa Sonoma Wine Country Film Festival, and the Beverly Hills Fine Arts Industry Showcase.
Two Harbors, although a work of fiction, was suggested by a true, and truly bizarre, incident that appeared in the local press 20 years ago. “The best way to describe it,” according to Two Harbors Executive Producer Philip Geller, “is as an anti-Spielberg science fiction film, although it’s not really science fiction and it’s not completely fiction, either. It defies genre shorthand. Ultimately, Two Harbors is a darkly comic love story about two unusual people.”
