‘The Woman in the Yard’ is Not What You Think it Is – Review

Finally made it to theaters to see The Woman in the Yard, though I ended up leaving the theater with more questions than answers. For as long as I've been going to see movies (and that is a long time), I've never quite known how to feel about movies that leave me feeling confused.
