The Week That Girl Died

If you can find it, see it, `The Week that Girl Died' is a smart, funny and well executed slice of life comedy. Quite simply, it's a true sleeper hit that won't let you down. One problem, it is hard to find. I caught this movie at a film festival in Chicago a couple of years ago, and then saw it again at a New York screening, as part of a series. This romantic comedy is a story of friendship, love, lust and family, (not specifically in that order). It is charming, funny, and most of all honest and believable. The cast of up and coming actors can already be seen regularly on TV and in theaters; most notably Erik Palladino, Justina Machado, and Patrick Fischler. All other actors do a nice job of portraying these realistic and sometimes quirky characters, there were solid performances all around. My hat goes off to Rocco V. Iacovone and Sean Travis, they make a solid writer/director team who seemed to be going in the same direction, (something rare these days). Also, I have a feeling one day we will know the names of some of the lesser known actors, specifically Robert Longstreet and Shana O'Neil who portrayed their flawed characters to near perfection.

I caught this film as part of the AFI Film Festival. I thought it was fresh, funny and thought provoking. A sleeper hit.

In addition, the actors were really likeable, and the story left me thinking.

Wonderfully written, this tale of 3 best friends in search of love will steal your heart. We can all see a little bit of ourselves in these characters. Full of young "up and coming" talent, this ensemble cast will surprise you. Nicely shot and directed, this feature is an all around winner. Definitely a must see!

I liked this movie, it is funny and smart, I am glad I stumbled upon it. Screenplay is interesting- good buddies each struggling to find a relationship, it can be very funny at times, but most of all it contains interesting story twists. You will not get bored. Screenplay is good,it flows easily, excellent performance, very realistic, all actors are really good. I very much enjoyed the movie and the feeling it leaves behind. I feel as if I did not waste my time :). I found this movie on youtube and upon seeing it I was surprised that 2.282 users did not comment at all! So just go on youtube, watch it for free and see for yourself! I gave the rating 9 out of 10, that s how much I liked it. :)

This picture is wonderful. Excellently written and directed as well as acted. These film makers are on their way. A "slice of life" movie that inspires the viewer to reflect on the human condition and relationships. I would highly recommend this film for its sincere and poignant portrayal of life and its challenges.
