Pin Cushion
Description
Used to being Iona's bestie herself, Lyn feels left out. So Lyn also makes friends with BELINDA, her neighbour. As much as Lyn and Iona pretend to each other that things are going great, things aren't going great for either of them. Iona struggles with the girls, who act more like frenemies than friends, and Belinda won't give Lyn her stepladders back. Both Mother and Daughter retreat into fantasy and lies.

Doesn't take it easy on the viewer, but there's plenty here to admire, including two sharp performances gracefully interpreting a slow descent into parental and teenager Hell.

An equally tragic and funny, magical realism and coming-of-age story, odd and creatively refreshing. It is a film unlike anything we've seen before and deserving of our attention.
July 19, 2018
Haywood digs into her own teenage memories and unearths something eccentric, tragic and utterly unclassifiable.

Writer-director Deborah Haywood makes her feature directorial debut with the surreal and whimsical mother-daughter nightmare Pin Cushion, driven by a singular vision and masterful control of a unique tone, which tiptoes the line of beauty and terror.

... overdoses on quirks and relies on thin supporting characters, then adds a shocking twist at the end that's never fully earned.

At its core, this is a story about bullying and mental illness and being disconnected from reality.
July 20, 2018
For sheer distinctiveness of vision, and for the visceral portrayal of how it feels to be bullied, first time director Deborah Haywood deserves plaudits, as do her two lead actresses. It will be interesting to see what she comes up with next.
July 19, 2018
Haywood's formidable first feature is at once a ruthless dissection of cruelty, capturing the relentless torment of outcasts for the pleasure of self-styled superiors, and a warm evocation of an interdependent mother-daughter bond.
