Portrait of Love

The acting is horrible. So predictable and unrealistic.

I will watch Jason Dohring in anything. I first saw him on Veronica Mars and then Moonlight, Ringer, and numerous other tv shows and movies. You can see the emotions revealed in his face. Sometimes his expressions can break my heart. I enjoyed this movie and would watch it again.

This movie has attractiveness going for it, I will say that. I've never seen anyone in this movie in other things, other than Frances Fisher. Why she is in a film like this is befuddling. The lead actor has the emotional range of a wet sock, other than the over-the-top crying scene towards the end. Chemistry is fine between the two, but I think it may be more because of Williamson's acting than anything else. I only wanted to write a review because I wanted to express how weird I thought it was for April to invite her date into the home of her ex-boyfriend. Really. Who does that?

Portrait of Love is fine. Watch it if there is nothing else on.

IMDB tells you "Portrait of Love" is a rename of "Heart of the Matter", which is now available on Amazon through PixL, but beware, "Heart of the Matter" is a castrated hollow shell of "Portrait of Love".

I cannot tell if the reviews here on IMDB are for "portrait" or "Heart". But "Portrait of Love" is worthy of every good thing said here. "Heart" is worth the trash can. "Heart of the Matter" is a lame, inferior, incomplete cut. A waste of time compared to "Portrait of Love". You want the original "Portrait of Love" or nothing.

I watched this again, well part of it. The male lead character is written as such a pathetic clod, I just couldn't stand to watch it. Why any woman would be pining after him alludes me. The more he revealed, the less appealing he became. Don't waste your time thinking it will get better.
