Fine morality tale with two beautiful girls as eye-candy. GOOD MOVIE THOUGH! September 9, 2009 Rextrent (Wichita, Kansas USA) A fine movie with beautiful filming, music and a sound tale.
Overall this is a fine movie which can be watched by a family with minimal sexuality and language. No violence.
This is an exceptional film which deserves to be seen.
Beautifully shot, but very unrealistic April 27, 2009 Bradley F. Smith (Miami Beach, FL) We are expected to believe that the two 18-year-old hotties who lead this film live willingly in this fantasy trailer park somewhere in New Mexico, often lolling in a hot tub where they hold deep conversations. No one appears ever to do anything to earn any money except one works as a cashier in a convenience store where everyone buys things often. There's a silly teenage love story here, replete with a long-term fatal illness involved. If there ever was a place like Dreamland, I'd want to live there and never leave, too. Of course, one of the teenage goddesses is portrayed as a literary genius while her alcoholic love-sick dad can't manage to leave the couch as he moons over his dead wife. I enjoyed the soundtrack, which has a nice tune by Mazzy Star. You don't hear that very often in the movies.
Simply put- an incredible film! March 15, 2009 S. Borne (Vermont) There is not one thing I can think of that I did not truly enjoy about this film. The cinematography was incredible along with a poignant coming of age authenticity story line...incredible!
Satisfying Movie: Daughter Rehabs Dad and Gets a Life February 14, 2009 Quick Reviews I recently came across this movie and was really impresseed. The main theme is about a young woman, Audrey, who is a very dutiful friend and daughter. Audrey dreams of leaving the Dreamland cacoon and experiencing life. Instead of acting on her college and life's ambitions, she puts herself at the disposal of others (her devestated, widowed father and her chronically ill best friend).
Pragmatically speaking, she simply has to nudge her dad out of his comfort zone. Teach him how to live again by dragging him out of the trailer and going places - initially with her. Like many challenges in personal relationships, this is easier said than done.
In the end the father helps himself in order to help his daughter. When he finds her letters of acceptance to various colleges she has hidden from him, he realizes he MUST step-up, and transform from being Audrey's dependent to being her dad. This is a very satisfying Dad and Daughter movie with an interesting cast, nice music and scenery.
An outstanding, unknown, psychological movie. February 6, 2008 P. Abramoff (Moorpark, California United States) I saw part of this movie on the Lifetime Movie Network,
and decided to purchase it, so as to watch it beginning
to end.
The basic premise of the story revolves around two friends
who live in a trailer park in a very desolate town. One of
the girls is dying. Their friendship is challenged by the
needs of an agoraphobic father, and the arrival of a new
family, whose son attracts both friends at once.
The movie very subtly and masterfully addresses the issues
of potential betrayal of friendship, the intense fear of
having to face death, lonliness and internal feelings of
desolation, and facing leaving one's home and one's comfort
zone. Moreover, a very rich story is told, with only eight
or so characters of note in the entire story.
Very well done and very captivating.
