Review of Summer Love

Summer Love (2006)
8/10
Polish Guy Directs A Western
1 August 2008
I liked this film a lot... inventive camera work, interesting music choices, very loose plot. Not a formulaic Hollywood Western here, which will displease a lot of people. Not a popcorn and soda movie, but one that has left me thinking about it the next day.

Also, Val Kilmer is not really in this movie, which will also upset people. I mean, he's technically there, with like 30 sec screen time and no lines. It was interesting how much weight this unimportant character was lent because of his star power, though.

This is an avante-garde European director doing a Western film... all hail the modern day cross- cultural mash up!
