The Road Dance

I read some of the comments here and I agree with most of them. A very heart wrenching and genuinely touching story well and convincingly played by the main actress Hermione Corfield. A good thing that we see independent movies reach this level of performance. Until just now there where a 196 ratings with an overall rating of 7.1. What got me fuming though is that there where still 20 votes that gave this gem a rating of 1. Instead of just giving a rating they should have made a review as there is absolutely NO justification with so much real awkward movies about well deserving of the lowest rating possible. In the beginning it was mentioned that the movie was inspired by true events which I find rather misleading. Of course one can always claim that something is inspired by true events. Doesn't mean to say that it was based on an actual true story. But like I say fiction or not. This are two hours of truly enjoyable viewing pleasure.

Stunningly Filmed, beautifully felt... a perfect period piece that was felt by all in the cinema. I very much enjoyed this whole film. A little bit of everything for me. Location, accents, romance, heart ache, strong women, heroic men, mystery and love. The close up vision of each actress and actor were stunning and gentle. I would highly recommend seeing this one on a big screen if possible, to appreciate the grand, vast lands that the film was set in. Thank you for a story so beautifully told. Critics that did not enjoy this film, would be hard pressed to please, perfect for this very busy time of the year.

Was pleasantly surprise by the structure of the film,very well photographed,good script , strong cast.the ending through me a curve ball even though my wife had guessed it earlier.keepa up a good run of UK films .well done.

A young girl living on an island in the Hebrides at the beginning of WW1 falls in love, but her joy turns to deep despair.

It's rare we find a film like this. The story clutches you as soon as it starts. The music is so haunting and poignant. The acting from every single character in the film is top notch. The dialogue is only what needs to be said, with not a single word out of place. The direction is second to none and leads you through a young girls dream that becomes her worst nightmare.

These kind of films are what make me have a life long love of cinema.

They don't need special effects, they don't need blockbuster actors, they don't need trendy directors nor pretentious sound tracks.

If you love cinema, you will love this.

The good; so nice to see a well made romantic drama again. I would like to give 8 stars for the photography, because of the beautiful low lighted scenes, which transported me to another era, with such beautiful mellow, dark colors.

More good: there isnt any fault to be found with this movie, because everything from acting to directing to the story is top notch.

I didnt know any of these actors but I was impressed by the leading actor's talent and charisma.

The story in itself is a solid romantic drama, which could touch anyones heart. It is a slowburning period drama, which might be a bit slow in the middle, but the dramatic final is quite rewarding, so have some patience, you will be rewarded!
