_**She ran calling ‘Wildflower’**_ A 20 year-old (Nathalia Ramos) in a college town in northern New York has blackouts and premonitions, which pave the way for her to meet a troubled, but compassionate handyman (Cody Longo). They sort of team-up to investigate a missing girl case from a dozen years earlier. Kevin McCorkle plays the police chief and Alexa Rose Steele a young woman in the town. “Wildflower” (2014) is a crime drama/mystery with paranormal bits that only cost $650,000, but seems like more because it’s so well made (by writer/director Nicholas DiBella). This is not a thriller, as it has been wrongly designated in some places, although there are a couple brief thrills. It’s a low-key drama/mystery with slight faith-based aspects, mostly because the dude is fixing-up pews at a church facility and is dealing with disillusionment due to a tragedy. The pastor of the fellowship is actually a small role (Benjamin Ashbrook). So don’t watch this if you loathe the very concept of God or want a crime thriller with a dynamic scene every 10 minutes, like “Deadfall” (2012), which is a decent flick albeit contrived and unlikely. This one, by contrast, plays out like real life. For anyone who scoffs at the paranormal bits, these have to do with what the bible calls the ‘word of knowledge,’ the ability to know things about the past or immediate future which you wouldn’t otherwise know without this spiritual gift. Of course people with such gifts are understandably viewed by secularists as crazy and desperately needing the Psych Ward, which the movie touches on. To appreciate this picture you have to enjoy lifelike drama. It effectively shows how ordinary people and their stories are more interesting than the most overblown effects-laden extravaganzas (to me, at least). Both Nathalia Ramos and Cody Longo own their roles, especially Nathalia (particularly as the story proceeds). There’s an intangible honesty & reverence to the proceedings that appeals to me. Also, this is about way more than just solving a mystery, but the movie wisely takes the subtle approach, unlike “Deadfall” which smashes you over the head with its well-intentioned points. The film runs 1 hour, 32 minutes, and was shot in Brockport & Rochester, New York, about an hour’s drive east of Buffalo by Lake Ontario. GRADE: B
