i watch movie for a living and pick out which one be good enough to distribute . toss aside those that do not make the cut . i be not say that i know more than anyone else base on this and i be just lead you to how i come to watch the gospel of lou . anyways . so many bad movie land on my desk and i actually sit through all of them . i do not actually watch everything and usually i just look over at the tv occasionally while i be work the scan for production value and performance and and how well the story be be present . if something catch my eye i will take the time to watch it . lou draw me in during the first few minute where i close my laptop and wheel my chair over to the tv so i could completely tune in . needless to say i be enthral throughout the whole movie . the story be tell well and the character be either endear or repulsive ( depend of course on the actor and director intention for the character ) and all very well play . at time i catch occasional amateur mistake in the camera work and editing and but the emotional nature of the story make these fault easy to dismiss . i have hear other people comment say that at time the film bring tear to their eye and other time extreme elation . i be laugh one minute and cry the next and be incredibly touch by this movie . sadly i be unable to acquire it because i be a the saying go a week late and a dollar short . that the way it go sometimes . but at least i have the pleasure of see this one and i can not wait to see what kind of response it get . good luck and great fortune to you bret carr ( if you read this ) and you be without a doubt a talent to watch for .
