- Synopsis
- After a dinner out, photographer Sophie Jacobs (Courteney Cox) and her boyfriend Hugh (James LeGros) stop at a corner store for a late night snack. While Sophie waits unaware in the car, Hugh is murdered in a violent robbery. Haunted by guilt, Sophie goes on with her life as best she can: teaching photography at a local art college, meeting her mother (Anne Archer) for lunch, and visiting her therapist (Nora Dunn). But one day at school, a slide mysteriously appears in the projector's carousel: an image of what looks like her car in front of the corner store the night of the shooting.
Are these paranoid visions stemming from her grief and guilt, or does someone know something about the murder? As her investigation deepens, more strange events start to occur, drawing into question exactly what happened the night of Hugh's death. As Sophie struggles with her memory of that night, her life becomes like a photograph itself, an image refracted through a lens, with as much outside the frame as in.- Awards

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"The creative and experimental use of sound and photography are a big part of what makes November an intriguing film."
-
"Ambiguous in a satisfying, puzzling sort of way, November offers a triptych of scenarios revolving around a grim moment."
-
"The depth of the story and the characters is awfully slight to bear the weight of such fancy editing. But the performances are crisp and in focus"
-
"Feels more like a clever student short that got out of hand than the Kafka-esque nightmare that director Greg Harrison likely intended."
