Love & Suicide (2005)
Love and Suicide- important, touching and genius
I saw "Love and Suicide" last week in NYC at the Latino Film Festival and thought it was wonderful. I highly recommend this film to everyone. It is a very important film as well as a touching love story. A story about the power and importance of forgiveness, family, friendship, desperation, making connections, going back to your roots and the beautiful surprises that happen in life. the ending is genius and the acting is superb. Kamar De Los Reyes is an extremely talented and intelligent artist. He will blow you away in this complex role. Luis Moro's writing will stay with you. And Lisa France's directing will leave you feeling as if you were with these characters every step going through some of the most painful and some of the most beautiful moments of their lives. There is one scene in particular which the artists said was all improv that is just phenomenal.
The Unseen (2005)
The Unseen-NYC screening
I saw The Unseen at a NYC screeening Friday night and loved it. This film had a wonderful story, directing, acting, writing, editing etc. I was completely drawn in by the story and characters and I felt as if I was living alongside these characters in this small Georgia town. There was also some great humor in the film as well! Gale Harold was brilliant- he is one of the most nuanced actors I have ever seen and he blew me away in this role- I felt both afraid of him and compassion for him at the same time. The film is heartbreaking and hopeful and really beautiful. I hope so much that a distribution deal comes through because I will certainly buy it. There are so many parallels to catch in the film. I give it a 10. Amazing.
