Hiding Victoria

I was fortunate to view the film in a quaint theater as part of the Palm Beach Film Festival in 2006-- the real bonus was knowing that many of the crew were in the audience and acting as ushers at the event. They were students from then a fledgling G-Star School of the Arts (1 of a kind high school that had just started in Palm Beach Co.) The film was more than just a movie for them, they saw the behind the scenes come to life on the screen and the meaning of life unfolded. What an intense and meaningful film for all ages. I really wanted to see it on the big screen, but look forward to owning a copy and sharing the film and its message. Dan and co. were just wonderful and should be applauded for writing, directing & producing this film. The actors were right on and showed Palm Beach in a realistic yet funny way. Most films lack meaning--not Victoria--there is a message for all.

My wife and I viewed this film at a private screening. We both thoroughly enjoyed it. It was serious, funny, heart-warming, and surprising. Great performances by all of the lead actors. Special kudos to the young actress who plays Victoria. The writer creates an awesome and unique storyline that anyone with trials and issues during life can relate to. The film draws you in will an exceptional ability to keep you engaged. I especially loved the the surprise revealed towards the end of this film. I understand the film was independently produced. But don't let that dissuade you from seeing this movie. Both my wife and myself are looking forward to seeing this film again on the big screen. My bet ... this movie is going to be a hit!

I know the DP and saw the movie in an first uncut way. I can tell you I loved it as well as the performance of Victoria. Just amazing when you see this movie and you hear from the DP and his spouse how the movie was shot ( in what circumstance ). Just amazing. Perfect sets. Great acting skills. Beautiful shots. And just a perfect combination of the movie. Please go and see this movie !!!!! It is really great. It s something you might have seen before in an other style, but this one is really worth seeing it. Probably the first foreigner to have seen it. Just enjoy the movie and say I was right about my comment. Greeting from Belgium

As a licensed psychotherapist in Bulgaria who is in no way related to the movie's writer, I found this movie's message to be unbearable. I wanted to like the movie, and the actors did their best to salvage what they could from a terrible script, but good lord. Remove all of the originality and edginess from a Hallmark Channel movie, add an incredibly irritating soundtrack and play the whole thing back at half speed and you have a pretty good idea of what this movie is like.

Apparently I need more lines in this review to meet submission guidelines, so if I had to sum up this movie it would be: "slowly, gently, and repeatedly being punched in the face with mediocrity".

This was a great movie. I saw the movie about a year ago and was excited to hear it was finally being released in the theater. I saw it for the second time this past weekend and enjoyed it just as much as I did the first time. I am glad to see it was finally being released in the United States. This is a movie I would definitely take more people to. This movie had a very powerful message that really made me think. I thought the part of Victoria was played very well. The transformation in her was very believable and interesting. The movie dealt with several very serious subjects but I liked how humor was mixed in to lighten it up. The actors did a great job. I hope to see this movie released at more theaters. I think it would be a great message to get out to more people. When it comes out on DVD, I will definitely be getting a copy. Congratulations on all the hard work of so many people.
