I grabbed this at the local video store because I like Christopher Plummer and thought the idea held some promise. It’s uneven but has heart. Plummer is really good through a lot of it. The editing leaves something to be desired and it feels like a first effort, though IMDB tells it differently. Still from director Michael Schroeder’s body of work, it seems likely that this is the first “personal” movie that he has attempted to make. Given that this was almost certainly made for very little money, the casting was well-chosen and you can see everyone gave this little movie their all.
