Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Honestly this movie really let me down and was quite slow moving at times, aside from the billy scenes. But thank you timothee chalamet. A king. Really amazing job on this one, inspirational as always.
Was pleasantly surprised by this intriguing little film. All the acting is superb and you do find yourself emotionally investing in the characters. Lili Reinhart shines in every scene she's in, making the most of her character and packing a great punch with her sadly limited screen time. Let down - the ending is a little 'meh' and not much happens. But all in all it's really nice to catch these kinds of unique films and to know they are still being made.
Of course Miss Steven was dull & mediocre; it was produced & written by the producer of La La Land.
A quality movie, nice to watch and easy to like. An amazing story about love, life and commitment.Julia Hart, who wrote (together with Jordan Horowitz, her husband) and directed it, created a deeper and more convincing female character (Miss Stevens) than any male Author could ever do. And the talented Lily Rabe played it with infinite art.Such craftsmanship couldn't go unnoticed. And it hasn't: Lily Rabe already won South by Southwest Special Jury Recognition for Best Actress. And Julia Hart got a nomination for Grand Jury Award - Narrative Feature, at the same conference.A mention to 'America' (the Band): the movie would not have been the same without their 'Sister Golden Hair, 1975'
