I am a huge drama freak, and I expect a lot from the films I see. That's why when I went to see a film made by someone from Seattle, I was a bit worried. Let's face it, we are not known here for our artists or our films. I don't think a hit was ever fully produced here without the generous help from LA, and there aren't even many of those. This aside I was pleasantly surprised by the beauty and tight structure of Living Life. Its story line was poignant, it characters well developed and its emotion strong and stirring. I was moved to tears on more than one occasion. The technical side of the movie was first rate. The shots were long and beautiful, the music fantastic, and the location/set design first rate. When I think about the fact that a 17 year old wrote the film and the SOLD IT, I am floored. What an amazing phenomenon.
Highly recommended!
