User Reviews

Outstanding short film

This movie was very Fellini-like and had a beautiful, sweet and stunning ending. Bryce is very gifted needless to say. It was the best of the Glamour Magazine winners movies. Alfred Molina and Katherine Wasserman were equally great. Katherine is ethereal in the movie. The lighting and scenes were captivating. The movie left one guessing throughout it how it would end up. It could easily have been a thriller but instead ended up into a beautiful love story. The story line was about a women who answered a personal ad and took a chance. She met the man of her dreams but not without hiccups in the beginning. Ultimaely they overcome their fears and walk out into the future together. It was stunning.
