    A Great Film

    I loved this movie. It's a great story and it really made me think about what's important in life. Not your typical Hollywood fluff. Interesting characters working their way through life and finding hope and love in unexpected places and situations. It reminded me of some of the amazing people I've met in my life and how they helped me through the difficult times I've experienced. It also made me realize that most of the things I worry about are not as important as I make them out to be. Amazing things are going on all around me but I'm missing it, not noticing and not participating, because I'm so preoccupied with myself and my hopes and fears. A good movie is entertaining. A great movie is entertaining and changes your perspective on things. This is a great movie. I wish there were more movies being made like this. We are all connected. Thanks for making this film!

    Tomorrow is Today is Film Making at it's Finest.

    First, I must apologize if my comment comes off as too over the top. But how I feel about this movie is something I can not tone down! Tomorrow is Today is Film making at it's finest. I happened upon this film, through my membership to the Spiritual Cinema Circle, and I was blown away. It pulled me in and rocked me to the core. The beautiful, poetic, inspiring way this devastatingly heart wrenching story is told is amazing. The writing, direction, acting, cinematography--everything, is so powerfully moving there really are no words to describe it. I love a good cry, and that's just what this film evokes: a GOOD cry. For inter-weaved with the heartache & pain is hope, courage, and soul stirring inspiration. This movie has the biggest heart of any I've ever seen. I TRULY hope to one day see it on the big screen, because that is exactly where it belongs. Tomorrow is Today is a first-rate film that everyone should have the opportunity to experience.

    Good movie

    This is a very well-made film. Lumiere manages to capture the emotional struggles of each of these characters with seeming ease of his craft. Hefti delivers solid written material for the team to play from, and the cast understands the story as both individuals and cohesive unit members. The feel of this film is consistent throughout, and we found ourselves concerned and hopeful for the main players...

    Excellent performances by Taylor-Compton, Hefti, Draper, and Ken Arnold, strong and a compelling storyline made this an extremely enjoyable film to watch.

    Good luck, guys!!!! Rudderpost Films Staff

    Worth the time!

    I saw this film at the Annapolis Film Festival in 2006. It was very well acted, directed, and shot. It's amazing to me that films like this don't seem to find their way to audiences, while there are 800 sequels coming out each year...and countless retreads of 70's and 80's TV shows. It's amazing what Frederic Lumiere has done on an independent budget. I'd like to see what he could do with Fox or Warner or Dreamworks backing him! And the cast was excellent. I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot of Scout Taylor-Compton in the coming years. I also enjoyed the performance of Ken Arnold, who played her father. Very subtle and understated. Great work. Great film. Thank you.

    Interesting independent film worthy of viewing

    This film tells the story of a down and out man who is befriended by a young girl on a New Jersey beach. She is very young, and if not under age, naive in the ways typical of a young girl. She is also sensitive to what she perceives as a cry for connection of another soul. Initially, the vagrant wants nothing to do with her, but she persists and eventually gets him to reach back and establish the connection. Parents are more than a little upset by the liaison. The filmmaker does a great job of bringing out this tension, delving into the man's demons and resolving the relationship in a pleasing way. I enjoyed the film and recommend it to anyone seeking a movie that does more than follow the usual Hollywood formula of explicit sex and violence to tell the story.
