Festival premiere on September 21: Who has seen it?


I'd really like reviews from people who has seen this movie on the San Sebastian Film Festival. Please tell us how it was?!

Well I am going to satisfy your curiosity coz I have seen it today in SS.

If you want to see this movie only because you are a fan of Alyssa you would be very dissapointed, because her character is a small one & there is no dialogue or a few lines...

The movie is veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery slow & you have to be patient to get to the last story, the one w/ the old Humphrey, which is imo, the best one.

Alyssa seemed very eager today at the premiere of the movie here in SS, and I think she was very brave to actually accepted this role in such an independent filme, which I do not think is going to get any distrubution in the USA or Europe.
Anyway, the film is interesting as a whole, but with ups & downs, but this aint box office material so, you will have to wait...

Damn. I really thought Alyssa would have a big part. And very little talking? Why? If you don't mind answering, how much screentime approx. does she have?

Bishop O'Hara: You took a vow of hospitality for all in need.
Rev. Mother: I lied.

The running time is about 90. Well, Alyssa has about 30 minutes of screen time; w/ only a couple of sentences, but very emotional scenes.

Satisfied? BYE
