Fall City

This is an indie film and it definitely shows in the production but i love movies like this. it's strength is the characters and the way the story organically unfolds. it's not cliched or formulaic. it's feels like real life and you can relate to all the characters in some way. the acting is solid and believable for the most part. the male lead especially has a way of drawing you in and you believe his emotions and his journey. the female lead is also very engaging, believable and charming. the little daughter steals every scene she's in. i love the parents and their interactions with the lead and i even like the way they handled the "antagonist". it's beautifully shot and the music is haunting and perfect. i look forward to seeing more from this director and this team.

Fall City is not a typical, predictable Christmas film. It is more nuanced and realistic in presenting characters that are neither all good or all bad, and choices that could be interpreted in different ways. Well acted and beautifully filmed. Great addition to your holiday watch list!

I just randomly watched this movie without any expectation. And after watching this movie i felt satisfied. I totally adore this movie from starting to ending. Only some people can understand the depth of these kind of simple movies. A person who have seen failure and hit rock bottom can absolutely understand some scenes. Both actors did great job. I loved it!

On the eve of Christmas, Jon decides to leave his complicated life and return to his hometown, Fall City, where he will try to start things over in the midst of a difficult relationship with his parents and former and bitter friends.

Care Bears, here appears as a symbology, presenting the childish desire and hope and maintenance of faith, what was once just a cute teddy bear, today it takes on other contours, grandiose meanings, CS S2... About the film itself a mix of dissatisfaction anti slowness, a little lack of identification with the characters, or just distraction on my part, in a job the favorable plot, convincing and captivating, some good moments, performances and finally regular...

The storyline avoided some of the predictable holiday clichés, which made the film more interesting. The lead role was particularly plausible. Loved the use of location filming, which captured the charm and honesty of the small town of Fall City.
