Movie Haiku:Miller (daughter of famous playwright Arthur Miller) has written & directed this adaptation of three of her own short stories. While each “chapter” is interesting, the effect is uneven. Miller’s best in the story about the woman from circumstances most like her own (Posey). Shot on digital video -- raw & gritty.
