The Best Indie Love Story Since "Once"...
I was lucky enough to see the world's first public showing of this film at the cinequest film festival, and how lucky I was. As the tagline, poster, title, and opening suggests, this is an quirky, indie love story, no doubting it. What separates BWADK from the gaggle of other sundance rejects is it's painfully realistic, and quite poetic take on modern relationships. There are conversations and events in this film that are so true, so human, that a walk-in viewer could be certain they intruded on a documentary. And with this honesty comes a giant helping of familiarity. There are quotes in this film that are taken verbatim from conversations i've had with significant others. I truly hope these filmmakers get a chance to continue to showcase their talents, because they could very well be the next Woody Allen, Wes Anderson, or Noah Baumbach. 10.
