LAKE GEORGE 2

Shea Whigham is an actor primarily known for doing one thing. He plays low to the ground types, men who are often wrestling with their emotions in private, putting up a steely front to protect themselves and others. He’s developed cult appreciation for his work, often gravitating toward the same type of semi-mute guys. In “Lake George,” Whigham isn’t coloring outside the lines, but he’s in command of a slightly different personality, portraying a nervous man assigned to murder the ex-lover of a crime boss, put in charge of violence he’s completely unfamiliar with. It’s not a drastic change of pace for Whigham, but it’s something slightly different, and that’s the right direction, joined by the talented Carrie Coon on this weird crime/relationship tale that’s deliberately handled by writer/director Jeffrey Reiner, a television veteran bringing his tough sensibilities to this turn-filled story that moves slowly, but rewards this patience periodically.
