Huckleberry

I loved this film! It's an intimate, intricate look at a young trans boy who's dealing with many issues, most of all, his affections for Jolene and how life in a small town complicates things. I really loved these characters, thought it was incredibly well acted and honest and found the story to be original and heartfelt. I was engaged from the start and thought the lead actor who plays Huckleberry delivered an incredible performance. Highly recommend this precious new indie-- check it out!!

I'm a sucker for melancholy adolescent angst, and this definitely fit the bill for me. The acting especially was surprisingly good - special shout out to Sarah Ulstrop. Very nuanced. Really liked it. If you're looking to feel bad (in a good way!) check this one out.

If you're in the LGBTQ community or have friends in it, so much of this film will ring true. But even if you are without that experience, anyone with a heart and a mind can appreciate this story. Sensitive, real, involving. I was truly engrossed by both the film and the filmmaking. And the acting is terrific as well. A great, authentic 90's period piece. But absolutely relevant to today. A quality indie film... a quality film, period. Excellent!

I first watched the trailer to this gem of a film. It most certainly got my attention. But before I did that... I noticed a lot of 4 & 5 star marks for this film. That I found unusual and impressive (because haters hate regardless and will give a bad review because that's what they do). I love basis of this film, teenagers in high school and the emotional ride Director Roger Hill takes his on. Te Director does such a splendid job of keeping the audience engaged as he advances the story. The actors were just incredible. The story, top notch. I loved the look and the feel of this film too. So, if you haven't figured it by now... I give this film a huge thumb's up!

Recalling 'Boys Don't Cry', this weighty drama effectively forces you to consider gender identity in modern America. Featuring impressive acting all round, especially by the young leads, the film lands with some heft and leaves a lingering impression. A moving watch, which is both simple and powerful. Certainly worth a look.
