Don't Say It

This is one rom com you don't want to skip over. The cast does an incredible job of telling a very genuine feeling story. I found myself laughing and crying along with them throughout their journey.

Rich Grosso writing is incredible and so is his acting. I love the way they shot these scenes, it is beautifully shot.

I am not a big rom com fan, but this one has definitely won me over. It is really amazing the great films and talented actors that you find in the indie market.

I can not wait to watch more of Rich Grosso's work.

I was also excited to see included in this solid cast Spencer Breslin!

"Don't Say It" is a sweet-natured romantic dramedy that my wife and I quite enjoyed, and that's saying something! While the story itself treads in familiar romcom territory, its the writing and performances that elevate this film way beyond what we often expect from indie films. Even better, the film takes a look at the difficulty folks have finding connection as they get older, especially after having been burned by relationships in the past. Writer/lead Rich Grosso and his opposite, Victoria Kelleher create nuanced characters that we were rooting for, and each conveyed a world-weary countenance that rang true. And with its well-done production values, strong editing, and compelling subplots, this is a film that's perfect to enjoy with your sweetie, perhaps while sharing a nice plate of chicken piccatta!

Really cute and fun indie romcom. The performances and characters were very sincere, and the writing was pretty top notch. It lacks a certain professionalism that most films with a budget have, but that adds to this very genuine vibe the movie gives off. You can tell this came from a very real place from the filmmakers and that there was truly a lot of love put into this story.

I also greatly appreciated how the topics of mental health issues were breached. It does border a bit on cartoonish at points, but it is rather difficult to showcase the idea they were going for so I commend the attempt.

Wonderful, heart-warming Indie comedy-romance. Rich Grosso, who wrote and stars in this film, delivers an exceptional performance as Pat, a restaurateur and divorcee, who is at a crossroads in his life, having not fulfilled his dreams, when he meets Lara, a waitress, who is also divorced and wondering how she got so off course in fulfilling her dreams.

As Pat navigates his struggles to heal his relationship with his daughter, and to find his way to make his dreams of opening a supper club a reality, he and Lara explore a friendship. Standout acting from Rich as Pat, Victoria Kelleher as Lara, Tony Denison as Rich's therapist Dr. Bernardi, Viva Vinson as CJ, jazz singer and friend to Lara, Joe Pacheco as Pat's brother Paul, and all the actors.

While light-hearted and very funny, this film explores deep issues of trust, facing one's fears, and healing old wounds in relationships. I was moved to tears more than once. Great cover song, performed by the marvelous Jazz singer Viva Vinson (whose real life mother, actress Delores Deluce, delivers hilarious lines as a cafe patron!) Great date movie, or relaxing, rainy day movie. Highly recommend it!

Warm and Charming indie film that makes you Laugh and Cry. Shows that all people deserve Love no matter what age and what they have gone thru. All of the actors are stellar. One review compared the writing to Woody Allen and I agree.

Showed it to a few friends and they liked it so much they watched it again with friends of theirs instead of choosing to watch an Academy Award nominated film we had access to and those people were very glad they did. Great date night movie. So far everyone I turned on to this film was not disappointed. So glad that independent films of this quality get made. Hats off to everyone one involved with the making of this film!
