Nonureva Really Surprised!

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

acompton-58309 A film with a huge heart. I cried several times ... reinvention is never easy, and anyone can relate to the things these characters struggle with as they reevaluate their lives and experience their authentic selves for the first time.

Codex13 Thought it was cute, reminded me a lot of Garden State. Performer returns back to childhood home and reconnects with people from the past. Lots of great lady kisses, so that was nice :) And cool to see Hayley Kioko.

alexandriaoconnell If you're in search of a genuine feeling (not kitschy or exploitative) LGBTQ+ movie, Becks really hits the mark. Poor Becks moves across the country for her girlfriend, only to find her in bed with another woman. Down on her luck and broken-hearted, she moves back in with her devout Catholic mom, and the tension is felt immediately (though subtle at first). She's disapproving but loving, and tries to encourage Becks where she can. The casting is great, with Tony award winner and Grammy-nominated Lena Hall as Becks, supported by Christine Lahti (Blacklist) and Mena Suvari (American Beauty), amongst others. With interesting pacing, from quick tidbits packed with information to slow building scenes ripe with expectancy, as well as note-worthy lighting effects that highlight important scenes/cues, Becks rounds out its attributes. Already boasting the US Fiction Award from the Los Angeles Film Festival and the Emerging Director Award from the St. Louis International Film Festival, Becks is racking in recognition from fans of all kinds. Oh, and did I mention the killer original soundtrack? "Lesbian folk rock" maximizes the authenticity and charisma of the film, breathing in life even when no on-screen words are uttered. This is a must-see for all fans of indie cinema.

davepalante Becks is the most authentic romantic drama to come around in some time. It tells the story of a musician, played by Lena Hall, who moves home to the midwest after a breakup. Love is the center role in this film, portrayed as realistically as ever. The performances are fantastic all-around, with Lena Hall in a star-making role, fitting in several musical performances that are to die for. This film is a truthful realization of the connections we form and the bonds we break, and I would highly recommend this film to those who appreciate an honest and heartfelt story of love.
