32 Weeks

...it DOESN'T. This one takes it's time establishing relationships and allows the audience to understand the main protagonist, but then at end, turns on a dime. It may be a little slow for some, but I enjoy a slow build. The acting was good overall, and the direction/editing was well done. Many indie films leave me cold. NOT this one!

I was drawn to this movie initially by it's cover (yes sometimes one is allowed to be superficial), but the reason I started watching it is a personal one. I've been in a similar situation in my teens, unfortunately without the yummy guys fighting for my love, so it was quite confronting for me to watch. That being said, I was impressed with how accurate the story was in line with my one feelings I had at the time, almost like the writers went to something similar.

Anyhow, even if you haven't suffered through amnesia yourself, it's a good story and original at that (which I rare to come by this days), grab some tissues though!

The movie develops on a very interesting premise, and does so in a way that is not reinventing the wheel without being boring at the same time. Ends up keeping you in a comfortable space while keeping you hooked. The movie looks the part and the acting is decent overall. Nice touch on the final twist, well done!

Starts out by channelling the spirit of that other seminal Los Angeles-set romantic indie 'In Search of a Midnight Kiss', but then subverts your expectations in a deliciously unexpected way. Definitely worth a watch.

I was pleaseantly surprised my 32 weeks. Beautifully shot and acted. A car accident leaves a young woman with amnesia. This film looks like it's going in one direction and surprises the audience. The films plays with memory, emotion, longing, and love. I highly recommend it.
