Lost Heart

Thanks to the writers and producers of this film, the public has the opportunity to watch a film that has great acting (especially Melissa Anschutz), great character development (the honesty of the characters are brought to life and you get to know them on a personal basis), and a wholesome movie with real-life situations and a great theme!

This movie has a lot of heart. DJ Perry has written a film about faith Hope and the meaning of forgiveness and redemption and managed to make it fun. I was touched by it. The acting is terrific.

Melissa Anschutz Is the lead here and she is up to the task of carrying the movie. Don Most from happy days is terrific as usual as our DJ Perry, Shane Hagedorn, Christine Marie and Victoria Jackson from Saturday Night Live. Special mention needs to be made of actor Josh Perry.

The young man is terrific here and I would like to see him in more films. I think he brings a lot to the table. He has a grasp on humor and pathos. Just a Wonderful job.

Grab some popcorn and maybe one hanky, and enjoy . Nice job everyone.

I have already watched this twice! I am not a Hallmark movie watcher. They all have the same plots. The Lost Heart was a great combo. I love mysteries and emotional, poignant movies. The music was a plus! I am a huge fan of Don Most so seeing him in a more meaty role different from other characters was a bonus. The whole ensemble worked well together. Great movie!! I know I will probably watch again.

After seeing close to 200 2020 films, I had the honor of watching Lost Heart starring Melissa Anschutz and Don Most. This is a religious Dramedy with tons of heart and humor. Hannah (Melissa Anschutz) is a burnt out music star, who returns to her hometown Lost Heart, Michigan due to the death of her father. Her father wasn't the nicest man during her upbringing, little does she know he turned into a caring man taking in Chip (Josh Perry). Hannah has not forgiven her father, but after she confronts the demons and ghost of her past, can she forgive her father and regain her happiness. We also get a side plot with Elise who wants to be a singer that makes it big just like Hannah. However her boyfriend isn't happy with her dreams, which could lead to the end of their relationship.

The only problem I had with Lost Heart was some of the side plot. I felt that the screenplay focused too much on Elise and her boyfriend, but that's a minor problem. Melissa delivers a fabulous performance as does Don Most. The filmmakers know how to balance Drama and Comedy. We get some emotional scenes with Chip as well as some really funny comedic moments the weigh each other out perfectly. The cinematography isn't anything groundbreaking,but it's well done, with pristine editing and lighting techniques. Lost Heart is not one to miss this year.

Love the way each individual in this movie interacted with each other! They inspired each other, though they all experienced personal challenges in their own unique ways, each were willing to move beyond their issues of the past, and make differences in their own lives as well as the lives of each other... Not a perfect world, but the perfection is in their connections with each other in the most positive ways! Loved the movie, especially in these times...let's support this movie to become the classic it already is!
