    The Cost of Success

    "The Road to Galena" is a heartfelt drama that captures the quiet ache of unfulfilled dreams and the courage it takes to reclaim them. Anchored by a compelling lead performance from Winchell, it offers a poignant look at the cost of success when measured against the life you truly want against the one you led.

    Fantastic Film

    Great filming that makes you think about the important things in life. It's a heartwarming story with excellent music selections and beautiful shots of Eastern shore Maryland and the Chesapeake Bay.

    The film shows the struggles of running a small farm and how large companies can quickly change a way of life. The films contrasts the lives of small-town America with the life of someone who left the small town and moved to the big city (DC). There are great shots of the DC area.

    I would highly recommend! The movie was enjoyable and a hidden gem. Although relatively unknown, the actors did a great job and the story is classic.

    The Road to Galena

    Ben Winchell and Aimee Teegarden star as high school sweethearts who have plenty of challenges thrown at them throughout their lives. A well-conceived drama about the stresses of all different sorts of relationships (but particularly father-son) and life in small farming towns, where, increasingly, small, privately-owned farms are being swallowed up by larger companies.

    The film also (quite bravely) touches on more difficult subjects like suicide, and has a little of the usual small-town drama you might find in a Hallmark movie, though with it's often heavy subject matter, it definitely isn't one of those. A somewhat predictable ending, but Aimee Teegarden and Ben Winchell were great.

    Kinda weird

    This is set in Kent County Maryland but i doubt any of the writers / filmmakers actually know or have talked to (seen??) people from there. It seems like somebody's (with money) romantic, idyllic view of what the country is like and what it would be like to be a farmer. Like somebody from the western shore of Maryland, who has vacationed on the eastern shore or driven through Galena, thought the sleepy towns and farms were pretty, and made up a story about them. The eastern shore has a pretty distinctive accent too and i would have liked to have seen that represented. A nice try, with good music and nice shots of Kent County but not even close. Still i am glad this film exists.

    Alisa Allapach !!! That silly vocal fry voice!!!

    Another mediocre movie made almost unbearable to watch because of the fake vocal fry voice of Alisa Allapach.

    Why oh why do these B and C list actresses insist on faking that silly juvenile voice?

    The story wasn't up to much, pretty predictable from 20 mins in as to the way it would go. Nothing new here. Extremely annoying though to listen to that fake voice which in the end I muted whilst she was speaking. A real turn off for me.
