Refreshing, Nice Try

Warning: Spoilers
Hope that Netflix will give this film deserved exposure. The story idea was great. The acting was good. The script was amateurish and the director must have been frustrated in that position. It shows. Needs to be re-edited, maybe.

Script: heroine (Bening) appeared too self-absorbed to earn our sympathy. Hero was meant to have been Robin Williams and that role was not well developed.

Direction: Slow pace for 50 minutes of the film then rushed at the end, as they probably ran out of funds. So, viewers miss out on the joy of sharing with Bening, her conquering of self. I mean, I would prefer to have ended up liking her.

Somebody help me: remake this
