    Step Back, Doors are actually Opening ...

    This is a wonderful movie! When our real world is riddled with wars and permanent political violent conflict, this film takes you on a journey and brings life back closer to where it should be. The storyline is charming and enamours you quickly. Setting it in DC/Georgetown was smart, while unique and beautiful, DC's political world could benefit from learning what young people actually think. Watching Japanese films, I am used to open ends. I hope other viewers will share my passion for storylines which do not end neatly and rather make you think while the end titles run. The lead actors performance was stunning, notably as this is the first full feature film by Director Carter Ward, well done job, gambatte!

    • Trivia
      At Martin's Tavern, Ryan and Julisa are not sitting in The Proposal Booth. They are sitting in The Richard Nixon Booth, which was Nixon's preferred table during his time as a congressman, senator, and vice president. The plaques were switched to achieve a more symmetrical shot.
