I'm an expat who was pleasantly surprised to stumble on this lovely little movie one night while channel surfing at home. I've lived here in amsterdam for 15 years, but I'm born and raised in lubbock, Texas, and it was great fun to see a film that was so, so American in tone and texture, without in any way being reminiscent of the absolute shlock that dribbles out of the u.s. movie business. indie film missed a gem when they didn't take notice - i almost felt bad for the filmmaker, knowing i was sitting about as far away from the chance this will ever be seen on American screens as he is, but i guess you never know. a terrific cast, wonderful writing, moving and funny performances, a heartfelt story, what more can you ask! check it out if you ever get the chance. john austerling amsterdam
