I was intrigued by the story set-up... the man, trying hard, the woman dissatisfied and unyielding at every little thing that she judged him about. How's this going to play out? I was taken aback that the story of the 47 days was done in pop musical style, and rode it out... My wife and I enjoyed watching it on a Sunday afternoon, and had a little conversation about it... who's right, who's wrong, who's side are you on? Any movie that promotes a discussion for understanding has some inspiration to it.
The actors were beautiful, the lines delivered with skill, the characters were all relatable when you account for the need of a story structure. Not preachy, a little predictable, but the message was clear, and showed what is possible when people come from a heart of love and are willing to put away the selfisness of copping and maintaining an attitude.
I'm willing to bet that many of the actors and crew are friends in real life, who decided to create a project together with a lasting positive message to share. Their skill, experience, and training showed up in every scene. Well-made and a welcome discovery on a cloudy Sunday.
