    Excellent Human Comic-Drama

    I loved this film! Reminiscent of some of my favorite European films, in that it is character-driven, a 'small story' of Universal appeal, about what it is to be human and living in our challenging world today. Shot basically in one location, this film is filled with colorful characters we can all 'recognize' from our own lives, and yet unique unto themselves. It deals honestly with a subject not often 'discussed' in any entertainment medium, and although the main character's 'journey' could be considered 'tragic', by sharing her pain with her friends and loved ones, she is able to 'live again' and give all of us hope for our own 'tragedies'. Excellent script, direction and acting. If you'd like to laugh (and cry through your tears!), and rejoice that 'you are not alone' in whatever trials life brings you, check out this precious gem of a film.

    go see this film

    This original and moving story about a woman's courage with cancer had an enlightening impact on me.

    Suprisingly the intense storyline was supported by enough humorous dialogue and fabulous acting (thank you Patrick Bristow) to allow an easy digestion of a difficult topic.

    Barbara Williams' performance as the main character was both profound and eloquent.

    Always love to see her role choices, especially here. Wish there were more like this one. Definitely a must see.

    A Wonderful Gripping Film ... Very Touching

    This is a terrific film. Everyone will be able to relate to one or more of the characters is this riveting drama. This movie draws you in as if your are there. It keeps you there until the end, and it leaves you feeling whole and uplifted. Supreme artistry from this great cast. The Direction is fantastic, and the fact that it was filmed in few settings with beautiful scenery is a tribute to to the film industry. For anyone who has had to deal with cancer in any facet, This Movie is a MUST SEE ! It will capture your "Inner Self" and leave you with a refreshed appreciation of life, family and friends.From comedy and tragedy to suspense and thrills, It has everything a great film calls for. Thank You All for the experience.

    very good film

    I saw a screening of the inner circle and found it to be a refreshing take on life and relationship.... the emotional journey the characters undertake was captivating and surprising. I enjoyed it.

    Loved it

    A very well crafted film about a woman with breast cancer. Hold it! Not a sob story! - but a very human tale about how a piece of missing appendage can change all kinds of relationships.What really is important, who really are your friends - in crunch time? Really: it could have been another cliche story. But the writer and the director as well as all the actors are all on their best behavior: they make it real, gripping.
