Shades of Day -- 'Shades of Day' is a suspenseful Hollywood fable based on Feodor Dostoevsky's classic novella 'White Nights'(considered one of the greatest love stories ever written), but here transferred to modern day Los Angeles...

With polished cinematography that transcends the usual indie moviemaking, nice performances all around, and--surprise, Dostoevsky fans--even moments of humor, this L.A. story brings Dostoevsky into the 21st century.
