Directed by: Alex Lehmann
Starring: Mark Duplass, Sarah Paulson
Running Time: 80 minutes
While on a trip back to his hometown, to renovate and sell his mother’s house, Jim bumps into Amanda, his high school sweetheart. The two former lovers spend some time together, revisiting a past filled with good times, passion, music, regrets and lost love.
The choice
of shooting this film in black and white was a good one in my opinion. It did a
good job setting an intimate tone for this particular story, where the time
stops for a brief moment between two long lost lovers. The acting was quite
good also. This is a story with subtle feelings and emotions many of us can
identify with and the actors did a solid job delivering them on screen with the
proper restraint.
The tone
was a little drab at times, but, for the acting and the compelling story, I
give this one high marks.
