This beautifully shot and acted period film is definitely one to watch. The characters are vividly brought to life in this somber and moving film by both lead actors as well as an excellent supporting cast. Such a journey as this is not to be taken lightly as both Barnhart and Camargo take the audience down a path of addiction, destruction, and ultimately a redemption of sorts. Set in a time of high society and wayward whalers the cinematography, costumes and score draw the viewer in, and leave them longing to know more about these two emotionally damaged men. Written with a poignant sensitivity by Randall Sharp (as well as directed), Henry May Long is a moving film which serves as a snap-shot of times gone by, yet reminds us how the human condition is everlasting in it's need for love and salvation.
