In that scenario, Violet feels left out, with her only friend being Yana's stepson Daniele (Sebastian Croft), whom Yana keeps on a short leash though. Eventually, Violet decides to run away and soon ends up in a nearby forest where a witch is supposed to reside - and this witch proves to be well-meaning Hazel (Carrie Fisher). But even she can't keep Violet from falling into a nearby well and coming out in a parallel world on the other side where everyone seems to be totally self-centered - at least to Violet. Here Savannah tries to seduce Daniele, just to spite Violet, Yana wants to make Savannah her slave, dad openly flirts with Yana, mum starts a thing with Yana's photographer Franco (Vincent Spano), and Violet feels a bit lost between all of this - and she doesn't even know how lost she is, as it turns out Yana's actually also a witch and in an eternal power struggle with Hazel, and Violet has somehow gotten in the thick of it due to her own powers ...<p> <p>The last film Carrie Fisher has ever starred in before her untimely death, and while not the biggest film she has ever made, a very worthy swan song of the hidden gem variety, a mix of coming of age story, dark fairy tale and thriller that doesn't shy away from the bizarre, the surreal and the grotesque, <b>Wonderwell</b> is a visually stunning film full of impressive set designs, but that still tells an engaging enough story to justify the visuals, while the film's well fleshed-out characters are embodied by a relatable ensemble cast, making this a pretty cool and pretty unusual ride. <p>  </td> <td width="4" rowspan="2"></td> <td width="100" rowspan="2" background="../stylepix/squareright.gif" valign="top">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="592" valign="top">  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> currentyear = "2023"; </SCRIPT> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/endcredits.js"></SCRIPT> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> dosworsdonn(); </SCRIPT> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </body>
