Film Review: ‘Another Earth’

‘Another Earth’ is a sci-fi drama about a second earth that appears in the sky and the questions it raises. It is director Mike Cahill’s first feature film, plus it’s main actor Brit Marling co-wrote and co-produced it. Possibly as a result of the small budget, but it’s interesting to …
