Concerto for Abigail

Concerto for Abigail is one of those movies that you wish would never end. It's a master class on how to fall in love. Attraction to desire to love and deep friendship. Wouldn't we all like to have this? Monica Young and Andrea Bogart are this lovely couple. Beautiful women and beautiful acting jobs. Watching them interact was like magic. Hats off to the cinematographer. It is so well shot and those last scenes are gorgeous. I loved the music. Multi-talented Monica Young wrote and sings the most touching song in the movie. She can do it all folks. OK. I would have liked more kissing and sex, but that's just me. Watch it.

I rarely give a film ten stars but I honestly found nothing wrong and everything right with this movie. The story is touching and the writer handles it beautifully. The lead actresses are very believable. I don't know if they are gay in real life but if not, they convinced me that they are women who like women. Some of the supporting actors were excellent. I thought the members of the trio were wonderfully played. If they were faking it, it didn't show. The manager was annoying but it works well. Her over protection shows. I can't say enough nice things about Monica Young as Samantha and Andrea Bogart as Abigail. Their love builds in a stunning way. It's a beautiful film.

I can't imagine what it would be to lose my hearing, but for a musician it must be the worst. Monica Young brilliantly lets us into her world as her hearing is disappearing. The acting of Young and her companion actress Andrea Bogart are very believable. The way they look at each other gaze me goose bumps. I mean its hard to see desire in a face but it sure is there. In the end I felt that they were a real couple. Other people in the movie were also excellent. Jetta Martin as the spurned former lover of Abigail was terrific. I loved the "talk" manager hard with Samantha. Made me think a lot about how people accept loss. I hope everyone sees this beautiful movie.

Definitely open a bottle of your best champagne. Then curl up on the sofa or your cushy bed with someone you love. This is one film that just may make you fall in love all over again. I know I did. Monica Young and Andrea Bogart are superb actresses. I believed in them as a couple and was only sorry that there wasn't a longer movie so I could watch them interact more. I was especially moved by the lighting used in different scenes. The bedroom one was luscious. Both women couldn't have looked more beautiful. The scene in the end is amazing. The music is powerful and the look on Samantha's face is priceless. Thank you for making this beautiful movie.

When Samantha looks at Abigail and says that she knows all she needs to know, I was hooked. First time in a long time that the chemistry between two leads was almost leaping off the screen. The acting is believable. I almost felt like I was a voyeur into their space. The story centers on the loss of hearing that Samantha is preparing for. She pulls Abigail in to help her cope but then pushes her out. In the end all is good but you need to see how these two women got there. The music is outstanding. Each note compliments each scene perfectly. Hard to do but the composer did it. I highly recommend adding Concerto to your list of films to see.
