A Bluebird in My Heart

I don't understand the low average this movie has? It was a genuinly cool movie. If you like Leon, you will like this

Having worked in the corrections field, this was darn-near a perfect casting. The convict was what you'd see 6 out of 10 times on early release. The mother was a little jaded but alert--nothing got past her (most times). The young girl did what young girls likely do--sneak a smoke or some weed. The ending HAD to go that way, and it was an excellent finish. **I agree with another reviewer that the shower scene was awkward** I was pleasantly surprised by all aspects of this production--and I'd recommend it--highly.

I loves watching Indie film, this movie are great cause the storyline and cast performances are great ! Especially Roland Møller ! I've seen him a lot in supporting roles.. He's an amazing actor, which are one of the reasons I'm interested to see this film.. Delivering his believable performances as always.. It's not a plain ass drama, it's dark & gritty with some actions.. Overall it's worth a shot

A very solid drama/thriller indie film that flies very low under the radar. I happen to come across this film when channel surfing on YoutubeTv. The synopsis: Danny is an ex-convict who aspires to a quiet life, and becomes friends with his landlady and Clara, the latter's granddaughter, with whom he begins to have an affectionate fatherly relationship. Without spoiling what happens this film is very gritty and dark but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. It doesn't matter how your story starts but matters how it ends. This movie features very strong performances and the cinematography is beautiful. My only beef with this film is that it feels very condensed/short. I feel like there may be a Director's Cut out there somewhere. A Bluebird in My Heart stole my heart and gets a solid 7 stars out of 10. Don't forget about the Indie films!

Well thought, well executed, well acted. Minimum cast, minimum budget - maximum solidity and persuasiveness. A humble masterpiece.
