You Go to My Head

If you love to watch filmmaking at its best, You Go To My Head should be tops on your list. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment watching this film unfold. Each frame was carefully crafted into beautiful art. The story was told with subtle and unexpected twists and executed with a keen eye for masterful cinematography. The acting, editing and directing were superb. This is one film that is so finely and intelligently made that I would absolutely recommend it to film lovers everywhere.

Taking up several Hitchcockian themes (irrationality, lost identity, romantic passion, memory, love obsession) the director builds a solid melodrama in the dunes, visually exquisite and with a surprising twist.

I saw this film at last year's Weyauwega International Film Festival in Wisconsin. The story is fascinating and will most likely divide audience members on the ethical quandary of the main characters. Thought provoking, beautifully filmed and well acted. I understand the film was made on very small budget yet it is more original, artistic and entertaining than most big budget films.

I found this film utterly absorbing from the first frame. I was mesmerized by the wonderful cinematography which perfectly captured the stark desert landscapes. The film was further enhanced by its austere score. The images and sounds complimented the account of the main character, a woman, who has lost her memory as a result of a concussion. She is discovered unconscious in the desert by an older man who identifies himself as an architect. What unfolds is a complex questioning of what constitutes identity. As the story unfolds through the eyes of the amnesia victim, the viewer becomes drawn into her psyche and puzzles over what is real and what is fantasy. Although I found this a bit unsettling, it added the right amount of mystery making the movie extremely absorbing. The narrative, acting, and dialogue were all excellent. The design of the architect's home was starkly beautiful and fascinating. I highly recommend this movie.

With shades of Hitchcock, You Go to My Head delivers a dreamy and surreal passage of storytelling.

Acting, dialogue and story mesh perfectly. Without giving too much away, the beauty of this movie is its discovery, I can only recommend that you watch. It will stay with you long after it's over.

Great job all around.
