Eva's Diamond

The film made an unforgettable impact. The intensity of it was astounding - it was totally gripping. Keeping that intensity throughout was a great achievement. Quite a few in the audience commented that it was complex, and it certainly was in many ways. I hardly took my eyes off the screen but even so it would be useful to pause and rewind some bits to pick out all the detail and the symbolism.

I loved the start of the film - it really pulled you in. And now I see that all the elements (and the emotions) were there in those first few scenes - the uncertainty, fear, sinister feel, the brutality, desperation and then the love, hope, light, mysticism and spirituality and a momentary feeling of absolute peace. From this the story then unravelled with all this mix of emotions. I felt quite emotionally drained by the end of the evening!! Well done, Ice Neal!

Amazing production! Well done Ice Neal!!!!

I think she might just see an amazing outcome when wider audience sees "Eva's Diamond". There is something about this film. It opens eyes to many secrets.... and inspires respect for loving mothers everywhere, through the power of her lens.

This amazing production keeps the audience gripped in a very tense thriller.It manages to touch nerve of a deep emotion. Made on practically no budget at all,it shows determination of a woman,Ice Neal,to see this production through. Watch this film maker! she is going to deliver more magic.

I recently attended the London Premiere of Ice Neals movie Evas Diamond.Many congratulations to her on her first feature film.The film explores the incredible relationship between a mother and her child.All through the movie you are not sure of the outcome.I will not spoil your pleasure by revealing here.The subject is thought provoking and gives the viewer the true strength of the bond between mother and child.Miss Neal has a talent for choosing her cast and there are some stella performances.The finished film is of the highest quality and I am sure it will be acclaimed worldwide.well done and good luck in your new projects.If you have the chance try and see this movie as soon as possible.I highly recommend this film to you all.

I enjoyed the intrigue and complexity of the film, understanding Eva's fears and joy, which were represented in the form of Vincent and 'young' Diamond respectively. For Christians, it encourages them to have faith even in the face of tragedy and for non Christians to appreciate spiritually (or karma) of the human spirit's need to survive.

I enjoyed the film immensely. The performance of the cast was marvellous, particularly of the multi-talented lead actress Ice Neal and 'young' Diamond played by Cody Spinks, a young actor to watch for the future. A thought provoking movie which challenges the audience feelings, willing Eva not to give up. I am looking forward to the next movie from this director/writer. Well done! I will recommend Eva's Diamond to anyone who enjoys intrigue.

I enjoyed Eva's Diamond so much and found it riveting from start to finish. I was thinking about it on the train journey home and still am now. Ice Neal's acting teachers must have been so proud of her. I really loved her portrayal of the older, anguished mother, her haunted expression and the way she got down to the nitty-gritty of drama.

I could tell the audience around me followed the storyline and were equally absorbed. Roby Meola's soundtrack was so important to the film and he did a really great job.

It was good to see the younger actor Cody Spinks so happy and proud and I shall use his word, it really was 'unbelievable' that Ice Neal has achieved so much, the emotion in her voice as she spoke to the audience made me so happy for her.
