Red Wing

I am not a fan of romantic films and, maybe, this "pathetic" can be not fair. But, for me, "Red Wing" is a good film in its first part and result of unrealistic story in the second. Sure, it is not original but the idea of incest and the not most inspired use of the story of George Sand are the lead sins. The good points - the performances, first breann Johnson, frances Fisher , Luke Perry and Austin Harrod. Not the most inspired option - Glen Powell. But, in essence, a good try.

Yep. I liked this one a lot! Touching and honest and without all the regular blood-n-guts you see in lots of movies. Just regular folks having a tough time navigating family, faith, and True Love! Sure, there are some tense moments but nothing too extreme.

With so many big names, it's really no wonder this film is such a fulfilling watch! Bill Paxton does the "concerned father" thing so well and you really find yourself sharing in his emotions and concerns. And the young woman playing the lead actress was so great! She was elegant without being too fancy and was so easy to understand and relate to. And you'll probably recognize Luke Perry who does a great job of being a tough-as-nails cowboy. It's a love Story at it's core and shows that sometimes True Love is really hard!

Set in a beautiful farm country (I'm guessing Texas?), the blue skies and green fields make for a comfortable and familiar setting and you can almost see yourself out there assuming that you are not from a big city. Great locations all around, actually.

I really liked the acting and thought each actor brought something earnest and pure to the roles. Again, nothing crazy or over-the-top; just... I don't know. Regular? It was believable, I guess is what I'm saying. It portrayed the circumstances without making it too crazy.

This is a great movie to watch with your family (ages 12+ I'd guess) or maybe with a bunch of girlfriends with popcorn and your PJs on!

I found myself rooting for Love to find it's Way! But you'll have to watch it to see if it Love wins in the end!

Although a George Sand novella is the basis for Red Wing, in real life there was another Frances who fulfilled the same function. Bachelor Grover Cleveland was made guardian of his late partner's nine year old daughter when Oscar Folsom was killed in a carriage accident. When she came of age, Cleveland married Frances Folsom and she became the first lady and he became the only president to marry in the White House to this day.

Like Cleveland raised his own wife Breann Johnson raised her own husband who grew up to be Glen Powell. And quite the hunk he grew up to be with a James Dean type swagger. Married to good ole boy redneck Luke Perry and living with his mother Frances Fisher, Johnson takes a liking to the six year old orphan kid with a black foster mother that rent a trailer on their farm.

It takes a lot of years but Powell and Johnson find themselves and let the gossip mongers know they've been gossiping about the real deal.

Red Wing is an interesting film shot in Texas where the story is located and has some interesting characters in the background, not all of them stereotypes. Luke Perry takes acting honors, he's miles different here than Beverly Hills High hunk Dylan MacKay from his glory days in 90120.

This one's worth a look.

If you're looking for a twist on the traditional romance, you'll love this film. The story will tug at your heartstrings, yet feel realistic regarding the complications that true love brings. Lots of sweeping cinematography and exciting performances make a memorable movie.

All the actors were wonderfully directed with delightful performances by Bill Paxton, Frances Fisher, Joelle Carter, and Luke Perry. I especially thought newcomer Breann Johnson was so charming as the main character of Maddie. She struck just the right notes of a strong, likable woman yet still uncertain of herself. That's a difficult balance, and it was so convincing!

Learn what it means to follow your heart and be inspired by this movie!

increible! A film worth to eulogize.

Definitely the forcefulness, intrigue and argument cause the desire to watch it again. There is an ''intrahistoria'' (as we say in Spain) hidden behind each character that contributes to its excellence and provokes mixed feelings.

Rather unpredictable from the beginning to the ending credits, it is noticeable the hard work that stays behind this greatly interesting movie. The atmosphere, the environment, and the situation in which the main characters have found themselves causes a truly stunning effect.

A love story highly recommendable.
