Losing in Love

The writer is a poet at heart. His lines about wounded love on the beach, watching her running away, hurt. His characters create the perfect LA melange of hope and depression, ephemeral presentism and the forever possibilty of a tomorrow. This is my city, I could recognize it in DTLA, Santa Monica, beaches, waves and offices, in death, love, and sunsets.

ENOUGH SAID!!! Why do "writers" have to be so interesting? Are there any other character choices?

I loved this film, Martin Papazian who wrote, directed and played the main part, Ronnie, is clearly very talented. Ronnie is trying to write a love story set in a dystopian world, when he meets Amber, a waitress. Marina Benedict is a perfect choice for Amber, having an elfin "other-worldly" beauty which works beautifully in the film. The film begins to merge reality and fantasy, but in subtle clever ways while the story Ronnie is writing becomes more the story of Ronnie & Amber themselves. To balance beautiful cinematography, a storyline which is by turns funny and heartbreaking, with some amazing, restrained and heartfelt acting... Well I certainly can't wait to see what mr Papazian creates next!

Love the pureness and kindness of the leads. A "feel good" movie that is so needed during turbulent time. Los Angeles as a backdrop really makes you want to visit with hopes of meeting these characters. All of the main characters exude empathy and a genuine caring and support for one another!!

Stunningly beautifully crafted film - a hidden gem. I fully expect this to become a slow-burn classic. It raises the question as to whether Hollywood is even capable of recognising class when it's in front of their noses...
