"A very touching family drama about dealing with loss and reaching the edge of reason before finding resonance in a group of volunteer theater actors. Comes with a handful of extras like audition tapes and a nifty slipcover and sleeve."
"Watch it and weep"
"I loved this movie! I've spent the majority of my life in community theater so it resonated with me a lot. Not many special features but it does include a booklet."
"Its interplay between Romeo and Juliet and everyday tragedy gives it a layered emotional resonance that lingers beyond its modest frame"
"Missed this one at Sundance but everyone was raving about it! so glad it actually got a physical release!"
"Very good drama. I totally went into this blind, and since my movie tastes have been leaning more towards drama lately, I totally just fell in with the emotions that are SO strong in this film. Would definitely recommend to people who like dramas."
"Movie makes you appreciate what you have. Great movie"
"Another great film to cry to thanks to Vinegar Syndrome! Love the gloss/feel of the slipcover on this one in particular. Nice soft edges that don't cut into the packaging - ya know, the way slipcovers SHOULD be :)"
"Had the pleasure of seeing this film prior to the release on blu ray so I had to grab it. Highly recommended."
"This may not hit you early as something special. A typical family drama about parents dealing with an unruly teenage daughter. But the carefully crafted script doles out information along the way to show us why the teen is acting out. This film gets both the individualism of grief and the chasm of pain that can result in the lack of comprehension of it in others. Highly recommend!"
