    • Quotes

      Marcia Prior Glass: I suppose I fared better than Andrew who had to hand his balls over to father... only one pair allowed in the house at a time, you know. After father died, Andrew got them back but strangely enough he keeps looking for someone else to give them to. Olga and I passed them back and forth for a while but we really didn't want them... He finally found a real taker in Nancy who it seems had been looking for an extra pair for quite some time.

    Excellent Cast, Direction and Script
    I had the privilege of meeting the Director, Arthur Allan Siedelman at the screening of this film. This is probably the first "dialogue-heavy" movie that I really liked. This film is based on Chekov's "The Three Sisters" which is a great story to begin with.

    The acting is in one word stunning. Script is like I said very rich in dialogue. Allan Siedelman's direction is very enticing and inviting. I'll root for Maria Bello for an Oscar nomination for her brilliant performance. Scoring is beautiful but subtle.

    When released, this movie should draw rave reviews and can only be more successful as more people get to watch it.
