Blur Circle

Such a gem of a movie! I must say, I had a hard time at first connecting with the lead character. But then I started to get it. Get it from her point of view. This film takes you on a terrific journey. Wonderful acting and a great story. The director did a really good job in telling this story and at the same time keeping things at a nice pace. I never felt the film hit a lull so to speak. This for me is one of those hidden indie gems you find every now and then. A big thumbs up from me on this one.

Some time into this fine movie, I made a bet with myself that it would have very few reviews across the eight years since its release. I hated to win the bet, seeing only two here and, outside of IMDB, very few there as well. What is wrong with people. But that isn't what this movie is about except in the remote sense that it addresses missing the hidden meaning in things. As the story developed, nobody was who they seemed at first. But they weren't blossoming toward some happy ending, not at all. They were in it for the long haul. There were Christian overtones that I found appealing even if I'm not a church-goer or member of that faith or of any really. There was a message to the film that you'd have to spend your whole life trying to learn, as it addresses the burden you carry which is yourself.

Although the story is about gieving a loss I still was able to enjoy the movie and go on the journey with the lead character (Jill). The writing & directing is spot on and the Production value will rival any hollywood movie at the theater today. I highly reccomend this movie!
