    Must see film!!
    I really loved this movie! I can't say enough good about it! Please go and do yourself a favor and see this one.! đź’ś If you like Todd Snider, you will instantly love this movie. So many great references to this amazing troubadour!

    The actors were excellent. All of them. The story will draw you in and you will find yourself feeling a lot of different emotions. Spoiler alert, it's a great ending! It will leave you with a smile.

    Also, don't forget to watch the credits! There's an awesome performance by Mr Snider doing the song that this film is inspired by!
