The Significant Other

The original concept for this movie came from and was conceived by Shalene Portman, Original Producer, Director, and main Writer of this independent escapade. The original rough that I was allowed to view was in all comparison, the next, in combined thought My big fat Greek wedding/El Mariachi/ and Clerks all rolled into one. I thought her efforts alone thwarted all of them with the casting and crewing of the likes of up-and-coming talents of Donny Boaz, Stephen Brodies, and Stephanie Young, (whom I happen to likened to the talent of Teri Garr, whom at last note was suffering from MS.) I miss Teri so much in the limelight this Ms. Young does a great resemblance to her here. A real laugh riot. Especially her use of the word Moxy. Just really adorable actress that one. Instant charisma on screen with a first time awkwardness that puts all new Directors to shame. This film Works!!! Excellent new artists, great show entirely. Thrilled to be in the audience for this one!

I wanted to note along with hot, hot , hot up- and- coming young artist from the Dallas area and surrounding metropolis, I failed to mention the one professional that helped make Shalene Portman's Indie dream come through. This picture could not have been made without the hard work, dedication, and commitment by the leading actress Brittany Joyner. Brittany's commitment to excellence and a solid sound performance, made this film fly. A heartwarming lovable corner-the-market on cute, with her antics and displays of 'I love you' can't let go neuritis's, solidified this performance as a more- than-cutesy contender of chick flick. But a really well thought out first round A+ well done indie-girl upstart. Brittany Joyner, you'll remember her name.

I was lucky enough to get an invitation to the sneak preview of this movie. I haven't laughed that hard at a movie in a very long time. It is very funny and endearing and definitely worth buying a ticket to go see.

The three old ladies were my favorite characters- they were too cute and so funny, especially when they are plotting.

The leading man is a HAW TEE!!! and he's very good. The leading lady is also very pretty and very funny and the two together were great. Definitely some good casting in this movie.

If you get a chance to see this movie, take it. It is obviously not a big budget Hollywood movie, but it is really cute and entertaining and it will make you laugh and feel good.

Lively comic portrayal of the dilemmas facing young women today. In my day it was easier, just get (insert favorite male name), alone in the surrey and smile sweetly. After knowing the neighborhood boys from the time you born until you were marriage age, it was a given that you would fall in love with one of them, and marry. Young women today, don't have the advantage of that background, and with all our freedom, which I wouldn't change, we still have some of the same problems of being pursued by guys that are not "nice". I know several times in my life when my wedding rings ended an unpleasant situation for me, and without causing rancor. And so I totally understand the premise of TSO, and sympathize with Clara's delimma. I hope everyone will all enjoy seeing TSO as much as I enjoyed participating in it.
