Sexual and emotional abuse are displayed artistically
wild in the Hulu original movie “My Valentine” written and directed by Maggie Levin.
“My Valentine” features music written and performed by
Dresage. Dresage is a not my genre of music, yet I enjoyed the tunes. Levin’s
script is very artsy, and the story is about a young woman whose recently left
her abusive boyfriend. The woman is the lead singer and song writer who plays pop
music live in small clubs.
The ex-boyfriend is a true psycho who refuses to be
out of her life and when he arrives at one of her shows, the tension in the woman’s
eyes omits a justified terror within her heart. Copy rights to songs, money and
eventual murder mixed with catchy music, made “My Valentine” a fresh and
frenzied movie about the reality of twisted relationships, and how some women
are trapped in them. A solid thumbs up for this Hulu flick.
