Everyone Must Face It
22 January 2011
Everyone must face it, but at what point in time is the question? Some find it in the darkest corners of their mind… or in the most unlikely places.

What are the circumstances that lead to real love? Road To Victory is a love story about a Pre-med football player, Elliot, (Mike Reilly) destined for bigger and better things as a professional player. However, he suffers a head injury during a match that leaves him impotent and searching for his manhood. Anna, (Julia Anderson) a stripper who enjoys the pleasures of life meets Elliott at college in a pre-med class and the tumultuous relationship begins.

This independent film goes beyond the Hollywood version of a relationship and delves in to the many layers of life that confront a man and a woman seeking real love. Perfect for couples to glimpse at the depths of commitment, the challenges of ego, and the obstacles faced in the everyday world. Through their tumultuous love affair they discover love through the beginnings of lust. Lust is wanting and love is giving.

The cinematography, score, and acting are superb in this professional presentation. Writer, director and actor, Mike Reilly, delivers a provocative film with vivid realism.

Intelligent, thoughtful, and a well-written movie with compelling performances by everyone involved. Timely… a chic flick… and a guys movie! This rates a 10 out of 10 for a truly independent film.

A 3rd Dog Script favorite, Road To Victory is a brilliantly crafted story that touches hearts and minds! 3rd Dog Script aka Betsy Banfield-Malone
