Boring
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
I've just watched this film and I was at first a little surprised by the previous comments and not looking forward to it. But to my surprise the film is played out very well and the director has an eye for telling a story which is very very rare these days. He doesn't use sudden movement of the camera or expensive effects, but old fashioned movie angles and minds eye gestures. They clearly had very little cash to splash about, but with the help of some wonderful locations and exterior landscapes he keeps us interested enough to care. The acting is OK (some better then others)but the characters you believe in from the outset. I'd normally give this type of low budget fare a 6 out of 10 but for the hard work of all concerned I have to give it a 10. Well worth seeing. His next film The Book looks interesting too.
I loved the haunted houses and costumes. The comments made by some people just seem misguided. Reasons - It was made for nothing: 1 - shot on location. 2 - Period costumes used. 3 - Some special effects. 4 - excellent story. 5 - clever direction. 6 - has a beginning, middle and happy ending.All in all a good film with a great story. The production looks lavish and expensive and was only shot in 15 days in the UK at some historic locations. At one they caught a ghost on film. I couldn't see it in the film myself but perhaps you can email me if you see it.
A very good first effort from this director. Surprisingly good in fact given the extremely limited budget. Amazing that they managed to make a film at all, not least of all one this good. Good solid acting as well. Decent camera-work, and the soundtrack is really good as well. The story is also fairly good. This sort of project should be an inspiration to all young budding actors and directors. And it makes you wonder what these multi million pound sets spend all their money on. All in all this is a surprisingly good film given how much was spent on it. I expect future projects, with more money, will be extremely successful. I eagerly await the next film. Apparently it's another thriller.
I had the good fortune to work with Steven Smith and Greenway Entertainment on Time of her Life. I thoroughly enjoyed being part of a very professional cast and crew. We are all delighted with the results. I'm sure this will be the first of many successes for Greenway entertainment. Greenway are a very hard working company with original ideas and projects in the pipeline. There is no genre they will not explore. If you enjoyed Time of her Life do look out for their next release you won't have long to wait. Steven Smith is a commendable Director he managed to put the cast at ease and obtain some fantastic results, we are sure to hear much more from him in the future. Nicole Freeman-Wright (Lisa)
