Last week we had “Gone in the Night,” with Winona Ryder and John Gallagher Jr. as a couple who book a remote cabin in the woods only to find it’s already been booked, and soon we’re getting “Alone Together,” with Katie Holmes and Jim Sturgess as strangers who are double-booked into an Airbnb. Sandwiched between them we have “The Wheel,” with Amber Midthunder and Taylor Gray as a couple who spend the weekend at a rental cabin in the San Bernardino forest, and I’m hoping we’ll eventually get “Alone Together and Gone in the Night with the Wheel,” but in the meantime we should mention that “The Wheel” in question is a Ferris Wheel and it’s the setting for the very last moments in this film — moments that are so real and raw and truthful it’s almost painful to watch, and yet you gotta stick with it because …
Well. You’ll see.
