While definitely not the standard type of film for the teenage demographic (myself), there was something about this love story that captivated me, and speaks to all audiences. Besides being beautifully shot in a setting so breathtaking you could point an iphone at it and call it cinematography, a talented cast really brought this narrative to life for me. This unique and at first unsettling tale of two lovers was compelling enough on its own, but stand out performances from Frances Fisher and Joelle Carter as the love story foils also caught my eye. This turned out to be the perfect cathartic type of family for me and my family to watch over the holidays. Not over-cheery, not over- dramatic, just real and compelling!
