Tadpole (2002)
10/10
Fabulous film
19 August 2002
Intelligent, intellectual but not pseudo intellectual, reminiscent in tone, style of that quality in "Hannah and Her Sisters" that Allen never quite recaptured as well again: sweet, funny, life affirming, not too self-conscious too ache. I went to an afternoon show on a Monday and four other people were in the theater. We all turned and looked at each other at the end and said, "what a great movie." A pity no soundtrack available because the music was great too.

Cute engaging plot-what a singer!
18 March 2000
I turned this film on the other night on a pay channel and while I usually am a notorious channel surfer-I really stopped to watch this one. It is a typical story as the tag line indicates. We always don't love the one we "should" love, but you know, I think it's a "typical" story because it's one a lot of women, present company included, can identify with. I kept watching because I could really identify with this girl's conflicting feelings. And the topper to this film as far as I'm concerned is the star's voice. Iin the film she is a singer and she does a few numbers because she is auditioning.

I was absolutely BLOWN away by her voice and by the beautiful songs she sang. If for this reason only, watch! A real treat!
