leonblackwood Review: This is a cleverly written movie about 2 childhood sweethearts that reunite at the wedding. The whole movie is shot with 2 cameras so your watching it from 2 different angles. The film really does seem like its shot without any takes and that it's one conversation between 2 people. There are only 2 characters through the majority of the movie, but as they are 2 top class actors, they do make the movie interesting and entertaining. I know that the movie is old, but I thought that I would give it a go as there isn't that many movies out this month. I'm glad that I chose this film because it's a very original and a different way of shooting a film. Surprisingly Enjoyable!Round-Up: Aaron Eckhart is another one of those actors that doesn't get the recognition that he is due. He was great in The Dark Knight and he was missed in The Dark Knight Rises. He was a great choice for this movie and the chemistry between him and Helen Bonham Carter was great. I must admit, I couldn't see where the hell the movie was going from the beginning, but once it starts going its funny and emotional in parts.Budget: $450,000 Worldwide Gross: $975,000I recommend this movie to people who are into there movies about 2 childhood sweethearts that reunite at a wedding. 6/10

rainmanrey Watching this movie was like watching two incredibly average films at the same time. The story was predictable while the filming and editing was original but annoying. The chemistry worked but still a bit awkward. It wasn't the worst film ever but I could have found something better to do with my evening, I recommend skipping this one as I actually stopped the film at one point to decide if I should go on... If I wasn't twenty minutes out I would have jumped ship, instead I saw what was the only likely ending, as predictable as the credits themselves. So in the end, find something that does not try so hard with artistic camera work and instead makes us love the characters and the story which I found both lacking.

lewiskendell Ever seen an entire movie in split-screen? First it's pretty cool and a little disorienting, then it seems a little unnecessary and gimmicky, and finally you get used to it. Was the movie better for it's rather unique approach? Maybe a little bit. It certainly wasn't worse. I appreciate what the filmmakers were trying to do, at the very least.As for the movie itself, it's an interesting take on the romantic genre.  A man meets a woman at a wedding reception, and it's slowly revealed that they have a history together. A history that isn't quite finished, despite the years that have passed since they've seen each other. You learn about their past and their present concurrently, thanks to the previously mentioned split-screen wizardry.Check it out if you're interested in an adult relationship story, with a bit of an experimental indie spin. I enjoyed it. I may have only decided to see it because of Olivia Wilde's small part, but it ended up being one of the more memorable and honest movies of this type that I've seen.

lone-plainsman This 84 minute film, shot in around two weeks, edited by hand on a Mac and employing a decidedly different visual appearance might seem to viewers to be so low budget or hand-made to be not worth watching. However, if you do watch it, you'll find it a rich, interesting and captivating gem of a film, well worth the effort it takes to find it! The film centers around two people - never named - who meet at a wedding reception and share an intense chemistry. Flirting turns to passion - and the conversations that follow prove to be the most interesting part of the story. The technique of shooting in split screen could easily have turned into a gimmick or an Oscar bid with bigger-budget movies. Here, however, it is perfectly used - providing two sides of the same story, past and present, here and there and points of view. We as an audience can edit the film ourselves, and while the process does take time to get used to, it leaves us with a film that will change every time we see it and gives us an almost infinite opportunity to notice new things. But the real showcase of this film is not the visuals or the budget: it is the acting. Helena Bonham-Carter soars as the far-from-home, potentially unhappy Woman, managing to show both comedic timing and realistic heartbreak. Not to be outdone, Aaron Eckhart gives a convincing performance as the witty yet troubled Man, and providing a perfect Yang to Bonham-Carter's Yin. The two actors have incredible chemistry, making the flirtatious opening scenes even more convincing, and fun. Also worth mentioning is the soundtrack, most of which is by French singer/songwriter and recent First Lady, Carla Bruni whose folk voice lends the perfect atmosphere to the action. The DVD itself has some pretty nice extras, including an interview with Aaron and Helena that was not widely released, in addition to a feature commentary with the director and a few other, more technical extras. In short, this is not a film to miss.
