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.
Original_Sin Upon seeing this movie on television, I had not heard of it before. Now, I cannot believe that it was not more widely promoted and shared, as it is so beautiful and touching. Every aspect of the movie was so romantic and dreamy, yet being so raw and honest at the same time. I very much admire the two starring actors, who portrayed the complex and emotional characters so well, making it look so easy. I hope to see more of Douglas Spain sometime soon in movies, hopefully reaching Australian shores. To the film crew, very well done, and to potential viewers, a must see.
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.
