The Sound of Waves

For starters, good movie. The pacing was good and the acting was good. This movie was written well. I think that this is a movie a lot of actors can relate to and may touch a nerve. This movie touches on how on set relationships can get started or rekindled. The actors definitely displayed that relational tension. Can you date or be married to an actor? Can you maintain a successful career and a relationship with someone who is not an actor? Big balancing act. All of these questions came to mind when viewing this movie. Brought up some old memories and questions I had about this subject for many years. The director and writer nailed it with this one. Overall, is was a beautiful story.

The Sound of Waves is a cute independent film with relatable characters! Directed by Chris Frint, written by Tyler Dowey and William Green, and starring Alex Frnka, Tom Phelan, and Ione Butler, this story is fun, cute, and unique. The movie packs a lot of story into its short runtime -- under 90 minutes -- and keeps you engaged throughout. It felt raw and real which made it super relatable! The main characters and their relationship with each other, both past and present, showed a complexity and rawness that kept me invested and wanting to know more and see how their story would be resolved. Great watch!

Ethan and Jenna were a couple of thespians who fell in love. But when Jenna came out as a lesbian, Ethan pulled the plug. Fast forward 10 years and now Ethan and Jenna are ancient history. They say write what you know. So Ethan pours it all into a script. He partners up with Katheryn, a director and they hold a casting for the play. Guess who shows up? You'll have to watch the film to find out-okay, it's Jenna. Jenna shows up, slays the sides and nails the part. Then Jenna reads the rest of the script...Okay, now you've really got to watch the film. You see, Ethan (Tom Phelan) and Jenna (Alex Frnka) could easily be real-life partners. Their chemistry is that good. Also expect a standout performance from Ione Butler.

This is one of the best indie films I've seen. Very watchable. It kept me interested all the way through and I was disappointed when it ended. The two leads, Alex Frnka and Tom Phelan, were very natural and so real I felt like I was eavesdropping. Patrick L. Peterson, the Stage Manager, was excellent. His character was understated and he hit just the right notes without it feeling pushed. The dialogue was realistic and carried the story along nicely. The director, cameraperson and editor should be commended. The close ups, the flashbacks, the montage at the end were right on. Without giving anything away there were a couple of character choices I questioned, but it's nit picking when the overall film was so good, and I would have loved to see what happened next. Maybe in a part two? Anyway, this is definitely worth watching.
