Wednesday was amazing! I've seen a lot of Dallas and Austin local films and this one ranks at the top for me. As an actor I was completely lost in the performances, incredible realistic performances. After the screening, some people seemed confused (including friends of mine), but I really was amazed by this film. It worked on so many levels to me. I reminded me of a mixture of Requiem for a Dream, Cold Mountain, and a documentary or reality show. Very intense film-making. The editing was so different and intense, linking into the personal nature of the stories. I'm sure a lot of people won't get this film or ever give it a chance. And that is a shame. I am looking forward to seeing what Justin D. Hilliard does in the future.

I caught Wednesday in Dallas a couple of days ago and have been thinking about it ever since. At first, I wasn't sure how I felt, some parts made me feel uneasy and were quite different from other films. I just can't stop thinking about it. Everything seemed to be connected in it. It may throw some people off, if you're not into shaky hand-held, realistic, documentary type images. The acting was incredible. The segment shot in London had a very professional cast. The Luke and Lucy stuff was so intense. Lucy was amazing, barely had any lines, but had me in tears. The guy in that section reminds me of early DeNiro. The third segment was short, but the acting was great. I wanted to know what happened, but without giving a spoiler to the ending, it made sense. And the end is what has kept me thinking. I want to see it a couple more times to get it all, it has a bunch of layers. I recommend it for people that like to think and like alternative stuff.

Hope and Love, 26 January 2006

This film was beautifully written and directed. I was amazed at the different location shots, but more than that, by the complexities of the storyline. If the purpose of the film was to offer hope to the hopeless, then it succeeded. Bravo!
One of the things I liked best was opportunity. I had the opportunity to feel pain. I had the opportunity to sympathize or feel dislike for a character. Best of all, I had the option to hope.
I cried throughout the film. Hard enough that people turned around with knots in their throats and nodded at me in agreement.
Harold, you're wonderful! Hope you're happy up there.

SEE THIS FILM - If not for the tremendous acting (which it all is) - If not for the tremendous film-making (which it all is) -
SEE THIS FILM for the ingenuity behind it. The realization towards the end hits the viewer like an emotional brick wall. This film is so deftly polarizing in style and statement, slamming the viewer through a cinematic and emotional hell - hypnotically entrancing the viewer through a questionable purgatory - and giving the viewer a glimpse of a possible heaven -
THAT'S THE FILM - then comes the surprise - change the entire perspective - leaving the viewer questioning ideals, purpose, art, and relationships - WOW.
I read the other comments and agree completely with what has been written. Except that not one review has mentioned Frank Mosely as Julian and the subtleties and nuances within his near silent performance. Mr. Mosely's performance and segment was by far my favorite and I see as the most successful. And that makes the entire film successful. I also felt that the actors who portrayed Linda, Lucy, and Virgil were nothing short of brilliant. Their careful glances and heartfelt reactions lend so much to the respective leads within their segments. (As does Mr. Mosely's performance draw on the eerily realistic voice-over in Narcissus Flower).
