Half Empty/Half Full

Excellent acting, particularly the two women. Would make a great play in a small theater.

This is a well-written glimpse into the life of two couples, which is sadly believable. This film is both simple in its use of four actors and one location, yet complex in how their relationships are revealed and the action unfolds!

An outstanding tour de force by each of the four actors. Views of friendship, trust, fertility, and marriage are examined through four ever-changing, ever-complex lenses as the four protagonists as they share dinner and wine.The topics subtly shift and grow in intrigue and intensity to its important and compelling climax. A thought provoking production that is not to be missed!

Was an incredible, compelling portrayal of the deceit, dishonesty, deception and secrets withheld in a relationship. I felt like a "fly on the wall" watching an intimate dinner between 2 couples and seeing how they communicate and share with each other. The writer nailed the uncomfortable feeling you get when you're not being honest with yourself and your best friends and partners. It's a fascinating display of how difficult relationships are, but more importantly how people can be without expressing their true essence and how they truly feel. There was humor interspersed during the drama that offered relief, and yet how humor can hide our true selves.

This film captures the complexity and authenticity of passionate relationships with all the wit and authenticity one could hope for. We are sometimes caught off guard between the initial naivete and the growing anger portraying both the need to hide & retreat and the ensuing drama which can not be contained.The lead actor (also writer and director) initially hides in the shadows before we realize he is more lost than nonsensical. The supporting cast shines.This is a definite second viewing film.
