    Author of The Crickets Dance

    It took me three years to write this story. I loved getting lost in every character and plot line. I am so grateful for the opportunity I had to bring it to the screen and the novel has hade glowing reviews on both Amazon and Goodreads. I thank you all for taking the time to read the novel and have been so blessed by all of your comments related to the original story of the novel.

    Possibly a real story

    There were possibly many instances if this being close to reality. Kristen Renton gave one of her best performances if not her best so far in her career

    She is a talented actor caught in a whirlpool of low budget and mostly low-quality films.

    A wonderful film

    The director coaxed some great performances out of the actors, and the cinematography is beautiful as well. The juxtaposition between the past and the present was handled deftly and there are a lot of weighty themes to chew on. I was consistently engaged in the narrative. All in all, this is a great movie for a wide audience.

    AMAZING

    When Annabeth started writing in the journal I was HOOKED! The flashbacks and love between those women were very touching. Loved the story! I didn't expect to cry that much.

    Campy

    This story deserved so much more. Unfortunately, the screenplay was poorly written and had no flow. We are left wondering the back story of these characters as they are thrown at us.

    Continuity is lacking. The costumes for the historical time period are incorrect. The integration of the story in history is inaccurate.

    I wanted to like it but I just can't.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The small town Angie Lawrence is from was inspired by Deborah Robillard's home town although the story is fiction. The characters of Mrs. Claudia and Janice are from the authors imagination, and are a tribute to some of the qualities she admired in several women who the author knew and loved that influenced her in her in her formative years growing up in the rural Georgia. Most of the character names come from either Deborah Robillard's family tree or beloved friends, except for Ophelia. Her name comes from Shakespeare's Hamlet, one of the authors favorite plays. While Shakespeare's Ophelia character is complex and multifaceted she is held in high esteem by her father as a virtuous woman whose values and morality are meant to show the characters potential to be both a dutiful wife and an exemplary mother. Ophelia is also a French name meaning 'helper' and is a tribute to the authors French roots. Angie's last name of Lawrence is the first name of Deborah's beloved grandfather, where Deborah's French lineage comes from. While the story is fiction Deborah wanted to pay her respects to both literary characters and authors that she admired and those around her who helped shape own life.
