MA NOTE

In Manhattan, Eurasian acting student Julia Chamonix (Ha Phuong) is unable to enjoy the privileged life she shares with her doting father (Andrew McCarthy). Haunted by the tragic early death of her mother-a former star actress and singer in Vietnam-and likewise haunted by a secret desire she has to hide from the world, Julia struggles in her acting studies under renowned coach Igor (Richard Chamberlain). However, her ambitions to emulate her mother's success are thwarted by her severe difficulties with the English language. Her only confidante is her wise Vietnamese grandmother (Kieu Chinh), but even with her she limits what she confides. Meanwhile she begins to experience recurrent nightmares in which she relives the car accident that killed her mother. Caught between two very different cultures, East and West, Julia questions if she will ever fit in anywhere.

Couldn't figure if I shld give it a 1 or a10.

1 if it's meant to be a serious film but a 10 if taken as a comedy. It's obviously a vanity project by the star/producer/writer/addanyothertitletothishyphenate. I don't blame any of the rest of cast and crew (heck, I will more so give them all props for keeping it all together as much as they possibly could), it's a stellar lineup of talent in front and behind the camera for such a small film. The main story and actor fail so miserably that it's rather entertaining seeing it as an extended SNL skit. Move over Wiseau, this town isn't big enough for the both of you!!

super good

Good from start to finish... The leading lady can really act. I didn't want the movie to end :)

The Director provides Sublime Intensity to capture an intense subject matter

There was another review I read prior to writing my own and I strongly disagree with the "other " reviewer's perspective. The director was dealing with a difficult topic and yet managed to not only capture the deep rooted complexity with sublime intensity but also with visual cinematography that further demonstrated the riveting pull and tug that existed in the daughter's mind. My suspicion is that any reviewer who denigrates this award winning director, clearly has a limited and linear mindset and the point must have gone over their head!!!

Great film!

Ha Phuong and the rest of the cast were excellent. It's been a while since I've seen Andrew McCarthy on the big screen. His scenes father-daughter scenes with Julia were very relatable.

A Wonderful Experience

I originally went out to NYC cinema to see another film, but when it sold out I ended up watching Finding Julia... THANK GOD because I have a feeling this movie was even better than what I went to see! Best surprise I've had in awhile. I've been researching Ha Phuong since I left the theatre and WOW what a talent.
