Having Only Caught this film the first time in the middle I was already sold on it being an excellent film. It is rare that I can find a film that has the ability to instill intense Emotion, allot of films today lack realisim and emotion. This one how ever had both.

The film is about a teenage girl who runs from home to find her father after her mothers boy friend makes a less than flattering pass at her. Along the way we witness her struggles and learn that this Independent girl with an attitude is as human, confused and unprepared as the rest of us. The end was deffinately a shock.

Ultimately, Id have to say this was an Excellent film, for two reasons. It was Real, the characters were real, the story was real. Not that it was necessarily true, but there were no unrealistic aspects behind the story. Allot of films these days lack the realisim that I think our culture is looking for these days.

Two is the fact that it had emotion and displayed it naturally. The Cast, Crew, Writerer/Director and everyone else involved deserves a Standing Ovation for a well put together, well thought, well written and performed film. I recommend it to everyone, a film that Bumped its way to my top three. ( No small feat ) Go, Watch, Enjoy!
