Pieces of a Dream

The actors in Pieces of a Dream deliver dynamic performances. Skee Skinner pulled it off. This film has a great deal of symbolism, which hopefully will jump start the movement of conscious films being produced again. The ending was totally unexpected and still stays with me. The artist seemed to be a simple character that many can identify with. Coop is the real deal! This guy reminds me of the Nino Brown character in New Jack City from the 90's. Golden had a troubled past which I thought she had gotten over when she became an adult and mother. But like many issues we face in the world today the problems of society came knocking at her door. All in all, this is a film that is a must see. Way 2 go!

I met the crew @ ABFF Film Festival and enjoyed their reason behind this thoughtful film. Makes you question yourself, your own motives and how we as people will be judged on no bases no matter how evil we think one sin is over the other. I was shouting out through the whole film that sin has weight but when you finish you too will get their point! All in all the story line of each actor is real and the direction of the film is great. I'm just waiting to see what is next in store for these awesome men and women of God!May God bless and keep you is my prayer. Plese keep up the great work the sound track in this movie was great as well as the art work that was done by the painter.

Hello Everyone, This is Anita Showalter I played Natasha Toussaint in this film. I would like to thank everyone who came out to see this film. I myself was blown away!!! Getting to see it for the first time on the big screen with a room full of people was incredible. My favorite thing was seeing and hearing the reactions the audience gave, this film is so powerful it speaks to everyone even those who didn't particularly liked it they still talked about it with me to try and understand it. All i know is that this movie needs to be seen by everyone please continue your support by voting on this site and telling us your comments. Thank you again and i hope to see you all at the movies.

This movie really makes you think. It makes you think about what you have to do versus what the law says you can do. It makes you evaluate right and wrong versus religion. It makes you look at the value you place in life based on how your life is going....and whether that should be the case. These characters are well developed to represent a community that existed at that time, but wasn't well publicized until social and other forms of media provided a spotlight. I would have given this film a 10, but I couldn't given the grainy visual. Perhaps I'm spoiled with advances in technology. This by the way is not a knock on the production at all. I only wish that there was increased investment in the production that would allow for the team to really make it sharp. If the production resources used in Training Day 4 years early had been available, I think this would have been mainstream. I hope the team finds investment. They have the pulse of a community that needs to tell the rest of an important story.

This is a film about the true Nature of all People. Though it focuses through an African American lens, showcasing some of the struggles that many of us contend with on a daily basis, Skee Skinner has directed a truly unique, universally understandable work. The difference between this and so many other countless "urban" dramas lies in the central question that this film poses: 'Does sin have weight?' Not only does this cryptic question anchor the film, it manages to plant seeds in the minds of the audience members about the states of their own lives. People from all walks of life will find some way to relate to at least one character in this film, and be completely understanding of their actions. On a technical note, some of the cinematographic choices made little sense to me initially, however, the overall through line of the film is quite non-linear, and as such, those initial 'hmmm's' begin to dissipate like "his use of the color red." This is an intelligent film that underscores the lives of not only the Hip-Hop generation, towards whom so much ignorant media is targeted lately, but also to our parents, and grandparents who have survived decades only to watch the deterioration of a people. This Film strives to speak against all of that negativity by offering positive alternatives. How, when, and what they are is left for you to decide.
