Songs of Love

Daffodils was film that showed many types of love and hate in Eric's (George Mason) relationships. The film's Moral/Value is that we should have the courage to communicate and free our minds of such burdens. I did find that the movie was fast-paced, but it did succeed to tell the story wholesomely. The music was fantastic as promised and I did see myself as an extra (which was cool😎), but I must be in the deleted scenes as well. Daffodils was directed in a unique way and I am proud to be part of this film, so overall I'm giving it a 4.5\5

I really enjoyed this film, and living in Hamilton (where it's set) was very nostalgic. I absolutely love Rose McIver and she did a fantastic job. But the ending was a bit frustrating. But the sign of a good film is if it makes you feel something and I felt for these characters.

A very unusual combination of things in this film.

It really was a film of two halfs. The first part of the film set in the 1960s was charming and beautiful with two engaging characters and songs. Rose McIver shines even if her character could be frustrating at times.

In its second half the film doesn't work well and there were some horrible music choices and the singing by the lead male character was not up to par. Also I found Kimbra's voice pretty average right through.

Great to see Kiwi landscape and songs on screen but there were some songs which didn't work or were just kind of horrible and some great Kiwi songs were missed out (Be mine tonight or why does love do this to me would have been great additions).

It's worthwhile seeing for the first half of the movie which has moments of pure charm and brilliance, just wish some of the second half had been better executed.

I enjoyed the characters and the songs and the way the story develops. But such a massive hole in the middle with the way things turned out and the ending just left me feeling frustrated and annoyed!

There was so much to praise in "Daffodils" - most of the music (oh, the nostalgia!), the production values and period detail, the costuming, the acting; all were impressive. But the crucial scene of confrontation, even if it was one of the scenes that were true to real events, in film terms just did not work, and so the rest of the film fell quite flat. To have the man just stand there, dumb as a stunned mullet, while his "film self" warbled eloquently that he "didn't have the words"? Yeah....nah. Such a pity.
