Title: Broaden the perspective
Product review: Though I truly enjoyed this film, particularly the characters portrayed in it, I found myself wishing that the director had taken more advantage of the third-person perspective that film allows. While director Ann Turner retains the first-person point of view of the stories written by Alan Marshall, I felt that a little broadening of the viewpoint might have helped the development of this film. A couple of the scenes and characters were left largely undeveloped, making me wonder why they were left in at all, other than the fact that these were some of the people in the town.Despite the need for some expansion, this is a truly charming film. The actors do a wonderful job with material that could be considered somewhat controversial without ever making the audience feel uncomfortable. Scenes that could be embarassing to watch are instead handled with such grace that the viewer is allowed to stay emotionally connected with the film.
