I won't say whats already been said, but it's movies like these that give me hope for some type of future in film. This movie was amazing, and I wish mainstream America could put down the explosions, gorgeous vampires, and fighting robots to experience it. For another inspiring film coming out, check out "The Lie" it looks pretty sweet.
Ya en DVD en España! Aaron Katz protagoniza el 2º volumen Young American Filmmakers con sus dos primeras obras! Y también en CTK y en Filmin! Pa' no perderselo!
Without exaggeration, this is my favorite film of all time - I hope there are other people out there who enjoyed it as much as I did. Reshaped my paradigm of relationships and human interaction, as well as just being visually and aurally mesmerizing, and finally being topped off by Keegan DeWitts amazing score. Can't wait for Cold Weather. By they way can you believe this was made for $2.5k?
this movie would be so much better with porn. even just having the two main "characters" simply watching porn on their laptop would considerably improve this "film".
I am willing to bet that big time hollywood actors are not more talented than the amateurs in this sorry excuse of a movie, but are capable of generating a far more greater emotional response in the audience.
and that would have been much much much more interesting and engaging than this p.o.s. This is what I call indie excess cinema, where the director is much more focused on how indie,quirky and off beat they can be, instead of telling a good fucking story. Don't even get me started on those dumb enough to try and compare this to the great works of one Mr.Richard Linklatter/
God, this has to be one of the most boring fucking things I have ever seen. Yes I have seen this p.o.s movie like 4 times. What sucks about it? Everything. But for starters, let's start with there is no real plot, no character development, no story arches. If you've ever wanted to see a movie about people hanging out, this is it. I mean, sitting on a front porch is the feeling this p.o.s produces. They could have gone to any bar or restauraunt in NYC and just interviewd people about whatever,
This is a movie about a guy who's standing in a hallway until some vulnerable runaway offers him her security. After discovering that they both can't think of anything interesting to do, they race. Watch to find out who wins!
Featuring a soundtrack by a kid who probably mispronounces Erik Satie.
Very sweet film. The monologue by Sarah Hellman late in the film is fantastic. So many unpredictable non-cliched scenes. Need more filmmaking like this.
It'd be funny if he was actually a serial killer and then he butchered her at the end. What if one of these mumblecore characters met up with Ted Bundy? That would be pretty ... I don't know, hilarious?
why do you hate it? it's great. it challenges them. better than beafed up hollywood productions with genereic, stereotypical roles they get type-casted into.
This movie is awesome, It's sad more films like these arent respected enough, fuck all that stupid transformers bullshit, films like these actually have heart, emotion, and talent!
Transformers may have been a big, dumb, loud cgi fest with bad dialouge and giant robots beating each other up, but hey, at least there was an actual story there and something happened in the movie. And unlike this p.o.s, transformers actualy got pretty good reviews. And no, no amount of bitching from the likes of you will change that people would rather watch something good and entertaining like transformers, instead of b.s like this.
Also, and answer me this please, why is it when you like something like this, as bad as it is, you seem to have this knee jerk reaction to tear apart Michael Bay/Transformers/Blockbuster type of movies. Can't you come up with something more original or different and not just go along with the indie film snob elitist types? and I bet you're the type of person who claims to think for themselves as they scorn stuff like transformers and people who watch them, all the while you do and watch what
Oh yeah. This has so much "heart,emotion,and talent", I am not only being sarcastic, but using those terms very,very lightly in relation to this. Newsflash, something like transformers produces more emotion and reaction in people than this p.o.s.

The reason I looked up this trailer is to remember the name of probably the worst cinema experience I ever had in my life. You walk away taking nothing out of the experience
I really admire this whole new "style" of film making... (hence it is not worthless)but it's completely at the wrong spectrum. frustrating and exciting. this is more of a provoked documentary... I'm never completely suspended.
If you want high-speed chases and explosions, this is not the film for you. If you are interested in an intimate look at two real people building a relationship and a sensitive view of Brooklyn rarely seen check this out. Artfully executed!

I saw this movie and I must say it was absolutely terrible. Only watch this if you want to watch a bunch of inarticulate losers awkwardly converse on screen for an hour. It is complete trash. It is not even artsy. It's just boring and stupid.
Can i just ask: what is it about this movie that people like so much? i thought the film-making was terrible. I'm curious to hear other people's points of view.
The Acting is Par Excellence in this indie gem of a movie.Very exceptional and rare to see authencity so thorughly convincing on screen nowadays.Hope to see more "mumblecore"movies hit the scene!
Excellent cinematography, looks like an impressive film. Go Indies! :-)
(DeadflyOrkestra: yeah, it's definitely video and probably DV. There's a smear in the in the backlit shot that only happens with CCD sensors. Most recent HDVs use CMOS sensors which don't do this.)
An absolute gem of a film. It really really is something special. Aaron Katz is an emerging talent that studios should take note of as is Erin Fisher and Cris Lankenbau who are just simply sublime and romantically graceful actors. I have just got my hands on the DVD. Well worth it. A truly honest, affectionate, heart-warming film. Five stars
I just saw the movie tonight. I loved it! Especially the ending when a killer clown runs into the subway car and devours them both! Whole! Fucking awesome!
(just kidding about the killer clown. It was actually a chihuahua in a tutu.)
Magnifique ! The trailer is very romantic and sweet, I would like see the film ! I don't speak very quite English, but in french, I could describe my feelings more precisely. My directing style (images, rythm...) looks like yours and I would like talk with you about cinema, art, etc etc. I hope you will send me a commentary here. I can't let my email on youtube, it's impossible. May be I'll show you some images from my films...
