Echoing Peter Jackson’s 1994 drama Heavenly Creatures, this gripping tale of a female friendship gone awry is also based on a true — and tragic — story. When Kaye (Sarah Reardon) moves to New Orleans with her family and finds herself friendless in the halls of a new high school, she quickly latches on to the aggressively sexual Emily (Stella Johnson), whose influence ignites a dangerous passion between them.

The Story – I can certainly relate to the story line. Two High School Girls Fall in love, and struggle as a couple and individuals with being lesbians. One of the girls mothers is a strict religious woman who says things like “Homosexuals are going to hell” So I get it, very moving, and I gave this movie 1 star for the story line being relatable and another star for the ending (Ill get into the ending later)

Acting – SUCKED, the rhythm of the acting was all over the place, marks were missed and you could tell that they were acting. Their was some moderate talent in the bunch but the acting only made me think I could have done this movie.

Cinematography – SUCKED, again it made me think I could get a bunch of my friends together with my Camcorder write a moderate script and make a movie. So I guess it inspired me, that is a plus!

Sound – I have never made a movie so I am sure it is very hard to get the sound right from scene to scene, but this was OFF. In one scene it would be as quite as a whisper with some sort of background sound that took away from the dialog and then in the next scene the dialog would be so loud I had to turn it down and it freaked out the cats.

The ending - I like it, It was sad, but I thought it was a great spin on a truth that our community deals with every day. So I gave this another star for the ending.

So in short it is not a must see, but it isn’t a total bust.

CHEERS!!!!!
