If you like Hallmark movies but find the acting to be too good, this might be the movie for you. Unbelievable and unlikeable characters are not helped by actors with limited abilities and experience. The scenery is not so bad, and the vintage boys, scattered throughout, help divert one's attention. The lighting is pretty bad, especially indoors. The scene early on in the bar looks like it was lit by a couple of flashlights shone directly on the actor's faces.

About as exciting as watching a school play. A trip to nowhere. There is nothing engaging about the characters the dialogue is flat and there is no tension among the characters you find yourself not caring or able to identify with them. I think they wanted to make a movie like the Waltons but just didn't know how.

The story made no sense. Huh? The ending? So many questions. The only redeeming quality was Adam channeling John Coffee. Sort of. Almost.

Watch it if you want to be left feeling miserable.

For a micro budget film, this drama is great. There isn't a filmmaker out there that can do a better job with a 1950's period feature film and make it look this good. All the actors are unknowns, but they all put their heart and souls into these characters. Story is inspired by true events of struggle and mental illness. Just watch and take it in.
