To Ariane 19

If she's not the art director, she's almost certainly somebody who worked on the film, which sort of compromises any objectivity she might have wanted in her reviews.
If you look at her comments, she knows a lot of behind the scenes info, information on the making of the film, has inside info on who was cast and why, etc.

She was posting on the Wamego board too, with more glowing reviews. When I started a thread saying that people working on the film should disclose their possible conflicts of interest if they worked on the film as a courtesy for their viewers, she replied "I think you should disclose YOUR ties to the filmmakers. Go on, be a grown up," but failed to say whether or not she was part of the filmmaking team. And of course, I have never met or worked with Steve Balderson.

I don't know why the filmmakers are so terrified of people criticizing their film. Perhaps some people are going too far and being malicious, but how do Balderson and his pals expect to become better filmmakers if they can't deal with bad reactions to their work and use that to progress to making their next project better?
