CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

hanna-brown I saw this film twice at different intimate screenings in which the film makers were present, and found it to be a great dramatic comedy. It somehow still manages to stay within the lines of the format you would expect to see a modern comedy in while being extremely unique at the same time. The characters are interesting and refreshing and the actors are all so good in their roles it just makes the whole film seem effortless. A lot of films have tried to portray just what life is like on a film set, but this is the only movie I've seen that actually does it in a way that is interesting enough for people outside of the entertainment industry to be engrossed in the story.

gladyshatbox Just viewed this wonderful little comedy touching on some of the traps and pitfalls of the art of movie making outside the city limits of Hollywood. This is a keeper on many levels not the least of which is the fact that it was made for 50 thousand dollars, thanks in part to the combined talents of this wonderful ensemble cast. Sure to please and well worth one hour and 40 minutes of your life. Attention to detail is critical so be fore warned you may need to view this film more than once to thoroughly enjoy the subtle humor and nuance that can easily fly by your conscience the first time around. I guess this now makes me a film critic? And considering I have two opposable thumbs, I give it all thumbs up.

Susie Johann I attended the North Carolina premier of this movie last night, and absolutely loved it. The basic premise is that two marginally-successful film makers (who are also married to one another) decide to make a last-ditch effort before possibly throwing the towel in and opting to get "real jobs." The story was about the "human condition", and was, in turn, inspiring, poignant, and hilarious. The acting was first-rate; each character sprang from honesty and was entirely believable. Each character had his/her "turn", and made the most of it; but Lavin Cuddihee has a scene about 2/3 of the way through the film that had the entire audience laughing uncontrollably. This is a very fun and enjoyable movie, and I'd recommend it.

dv-909-565319 This movie inspired me to add to the lexicon of aphorisms. Cinema Purgatorio is a unique movie that is a picture within a picture within a picture. Is that equal to 1,000 words to the third (cubed) power? First, the movie is about making a movie. At the risk being blacklisted for creating spoilage, I will refrain from further description along those lines.Husband and wife co-produce "films" and are not doing too well. Spiritually and financially. They hatch a scheme to impress a Hollywood Star who, they assume, will back their next major project.Husband and wife set out to win a 48-Hour Film Film Festival. Nearly penniless they assemble a very funny and entertaining cast and crew who include a has-been, a wannabe and several in between.Their antics truly mirror the hazards and realities of low-budget or, in this case, no-budget projects. The 48-Hour weekend nearly turns into a disaster but through resourcefulness and persistence, they screen their entry along with several other submissions.The remainder is fast paced and will leave you surprised and please, with a warm feeling in your heart (unless you are heartless).
