Tomorrow Is Today

This film tells the story of a down and out man who is befriended by a young girl on a New Jersey beach. She is very young, and if not under age, naive in the ways typical of a young girl. She is also sensitive to what she perceives as a cry for connection of another soul. Initially, the vagrant wants nothing to do with her, but she persists and eventually gets him to reach back and establish the connection. Parents are more than a little upset by the liaison. The filmmaker does a great job of bringing out this tension, delving into the man's demons and resolving the relationship in a pleasing way. I enjoyed the film and recommend it to anyone seeking a movie that does more than follow the usual Hollywood formula of explicit sex and violence to tell the story.

I had the privilege of seeing a private screening of the film tonight.

I went to see it with a date and let me tell you... I hate to cry at the movies and in fact, I don't very much but this one really got to me.

I left the theater and had to tell my date that I didn't feel well and went into my car and started balling. This has never happened to me before, I don't consider myself a softy at all much the contrary.

This film is filled with poetry and powerful performances. This is a story I will never forget and filmmakers I am SURE I will see again. There is a lot of wisdom and insightful messages in this story.

The cinematography was breathtaking especially since I learned it was done on a minuscule budget (The director wouldn't say exactly how much). But I think this film could change the industry. It proves that you can deliver incredible production quality on an Indie budget. Although the images were beautiful, it really delivers on story and performances.

Mark Hefti went through a striking transformation during the film. He becomes a different person physically and in his demeanor. I knew he wrote the script before I watch it so it added a lot of meaning behind the messages. Well done!

Scout Taylor-Compton is unbelievable. What a hottie. She has so much charm on screen. You can't help but fall in love with the girl.

I promised in a signed statement not to reveal any plot points so unfortunately I can't talk about the story but all I can say is that this film is going to do very well. The director mentioned that it will be in some big festivals and I wouldn't be surprised if it became a festival favorite.

Thanks for this film guys.

Beautifully filmed and wonderfully written. So much wisdom! So inspiring it moved me to tears. Each of the characters were believably human with all their imperfections and selfishness while having underlying good hearts. This film conveys the reality of good will humans have for each other. The writing was rich, yet natural for the characters. I was informed that the entire movie was filmed using 1 (one) $4,ooo Sony camera, filmed in 16 days! So inspiring to see what can be done with a small budget... convinces me that movie making should be viewed in it's art form. I'm a musician who greatly enjoys seeing something done artistically. Really glad that this film came to the festival in Montreal. I hope to see it again! Amazing, dedicated talent.

I saw this film last week at it's world premiere at the Rhode Island International Film Festival. I was so moved by the amazing writing, acting and of course, directing. I haven't seen a film so well done as this one in a long time, independent or mainstream. There was not one character that you couldn't relate to or empathize with. Usually I am only able to find one, maybe two characters to like in a good script, but Mark Hefti's innovative writing along with Frederic Lumiere's dynamic direction helped me connect with every single character. After watching this film, I stepped out of the theater for some fresh air and then returned to catch a brief portion of their Q & A. Again I had to leave because I was so moved by all aspects of this story. Tomorrow is Today was the perfect title to such a fantastic film. This movie has restored my faith in finding love after loss and heartbreak. This is a must see by film lovers everywhere.

First, I must apologize if my comment comes off as too over the top. But how I feel about this movie is something I can not tone down! Tomorrow is Today is Film making at it's finest. I happened upon this film, through my membership to the Spiritual Cinema Circle, and I was blown away. It pulled me in and rocked me to the core. The beautiful, poetic, inspiring way this devastatingly heart wrenching story is told is amazing. The writing, direction, acting, cinematography--everything, is so powerfully moving there really are no words to describe it. I love a good cry, and that's just what this film evokes: a GOOD cry. For inter-weaved with the heartache & pain is hope, courage, and soul stirring inspiration. This movie has the biggest heart of any I've ever seen. I TRULY hope to one day see it on the big screen, because that is exactly where it belongs. Tomorrow is Today is a first-rate film that everyone should have the opportunity to experience.
