Whilst agreeing with a few of the more negative reviews here, I have come to claim my opinion on what I thought was a beautifully written and acted movie.
Without spoiling, the storyline centres around two women who ultimately find peace and serenity within themselves and each other. Raven, who has just gone through a trauma, and Kate a (what we can assume gay) mother of two.
I have to completely disagree with Raven being uncouth and wild, as when you see it through the eyes of a traumatised woman who is grieving greatly, she becomes beautifully sad to me. I think no one can judge on what they would do under such circumstances. And thus, I think Raven deserves more praise than she is currently receiving. Also, the performances from Dreya Webber was true and raw, so in response to comments saying it was miss cast I also have to disagree!
I have been a fan of T Dinwiddie for a short time, and became one after this film in fact. In no way do I think her performance was wooden by any stretch of the imagination. She quite in fact blew me away. (Also I think she's like the most beautiful person I've ever seen aha!)
Although, I will agree the love scene comes too early into their meeting and didnt have much of a building. However, I do think it was beautifully shot and wasnt too explicit (I feel in such serene films such as this, too explicit sex scenes just become uncalled for.) Also, some parts were a little far fetched like the crazy ex showing up for no more reason than putting in some angst!
I will rewatch time and time again. This is one 18 year old lesbian who is considered entertained!!
