Viewing Notes

When I was in Austin I made a point to ask Noah for a copy of this yet unavailable film that we saw at FF2011 (and one of my top five from that fest). Knowing my GF was coming to visit I definitely wanted to watch with her knowing she might enjoy this. As expected she did. And I still love the heck out of this movie. A little slight compared to Nakamura’s Golden Slumber but such a terrific and warm romantic fantasy.
