Love & Suicide (2006 Video)
5/10
A worthy attempt...
23 July 2006
This movie shows the friendship of two teenagers who find that their relationship is quickly turning into something they may not be able to handle.

Kaye has just moved to New Orleans and is befriended by Emily, a girl who is not stranger to trouble. Emily decides to take Kaye under her wing and tries to show her that life is worth enjoying.

During the course of their relationship they both realize that they have developed a dependency on one another, for lack of a better word they've fallen in love. But can Kaye, who comes from a strong religious background take the leap and follow her heart? Can Emily's strength get her to face life and stop running from her problems? By the title alone you know the characters fall in Love but the Suicide part? Well, that isn't hard to figure out but how exactly does it fit? Watch and find out...although it's low budget and the acting is much to be desired, the message is clear...live life to the fullest, love who you desire and be sure of the choices you make - you are the one who needs to live them and no one else.

Fingersmith (2005)
10/10

This movie was incredible!!!! I did not know the back story on it so I needed to let it unfold before me on DVD. It had many twists and turns but still kept the story fresh and exciting. The acting by Elaine Cassidy was in a word Brilliant as well as Sally Hawkins. The storyline is rich with plausible occurrences as well as fresh ideas from the present.

There is truly something about Ms. Cassidy's eyes that leaves "a mark." This movie is a refreshing look on the way in which we look at the 'victorian times' and how we view that society. A very worthwhile watch.
