Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
hrstyler I recently saw this late at night with my wife. We were both shocked we had never heard of it. It is truly a brilliant piece of film-making. Though simply shot, the film is put together, by editor Troy Niemans in a way that moves the beautiful story at a perfect pace and allows the characters and story to shine. This is a great date flick, well directed, that relies on characters and story... I miss this kind of film in our cinemas today. Diego Lunes
KennysTropicAngel I really loved this movie even though the end was really sad & I couldn't help but , cry. I wish this movie had been on theatre. I just saw it on LMN & I really think it is one of the best I've seen on there in a long time.
jbrasher I was given the opportunity to view this film at the Nashville Independent Film Festival and it blew me away. The actors embodied the roles with such emotion. I was mesmerized. It brought me to tears several times. Particularly in Lolly Ann's description of her parents' lack of love for her and their disapproval of her, I was moved nearly to sobs. I felt the religous demands of her parents were realistically played out. That is not often the case in films where that concept is often dealt with cartoonishly. Lolly Ann is obviously a wounded girl who is only beginning to realize the extent of her hurt. The tender romance that develops also rings true. This film stayed with me long after I left the theater. In addition, the editing, cinemetography and the use of a dissolve-to-white technique made the film seem almost magical. I was able to talk with Director Don Most for quite some time after the film and I was amazed at the care and attention he put into this film. He is a talented director. I truly hope he gets the wider distribution he seeks for it, though I doubt the average viewer would appreciate the gem that it is.
hsharrell Great, touching story with solid acting. I think that both of the lead actors have bright futures ahead of them. The story is well-written-- a tragic story with a soft touch (and plenty of humor). The scenery and cinematography are great. The direction is first rate. An enjoyable evening at the movies...
