[@caspiansfriend]

So heart warming! While the "Boy meets alien girl" trope might be considered old territory to some in sci fi, this film is so well done that the characters' innocence, awkwardness and willingness to keep at it (do overs) really drew me into their world. The actors who portrayed "David" and "Hanna" have such a chemistry with each other. Their performances really made this story work. And kudos to the writer! The story just seemed to work so very well.

[@FilmCrewe]

Thanks so much for watching! As the director my greatest gift was the fact that the actress playing Hannah, Marion Kerr, was also the writer. So I had a real partner in front of the camera keeping things on track

I liked this film, it was fun and uncomplicated and both actors were convincing in their roles. One thing I'd like to say, though, is what an attractive lady the actress who played Hannah was: She had a smile that makes you want to smile along with her and two wonderfully expressive eyes, so gorgeous (It's nice to watch a film that gives you time to appreciate the actors involved instead of breaking it up into digestible garbage bracketed by explosions and screeching tires)...nicely done, thank you.

Such a powerful, positive, uplifting film. At almost 64, with a slew of relationships behind me from being a nomad, this still brought tears to my eyes and memories of my 1 true love and mid-life "course correction" who was also "Far" and sweet, but had to stay "home" though shared more than 1 date, about 1000 nights... She forever redirected my life and will always be in my heart. The song "Don't you Wanna Know" by Sara Melson (I HAD to look it up) after the "do over" was pop perfection. It should be in the credits. Well done!

Totally agree. They don't make scifi romcoms anymore and this brought back some great memories of those. More, please.

[@mooniejohnson]

I think, and this means no disrespect to everyone involved in it, that this film was the *perfect* length. A rom-com would have needed "padding" whereas this was... just brilliant. Not too long, not too short, and definitely made my eyes moisten at the end. ❤❤

[@johnflynn6140]

@@mooniejohnson oh don't get me wrong if this was a sci-fi rom-com it would need a lot more to the script and if it ended up as padding then it wouldn't have done so well but this was also a very good opportunity to build a really good story from this base and could have been great, but this is just based off of what we have seen and sci-fi rom-com used to be a pretty big part of the market back in the '80-'90s and made me think of such films as Splash, Weird science, and Earth Girls Are Easy and so many more, none of them award-winning movies but still classic in their own right is all

I don't usually comment on the films shown here, but this one has prompted me to put finger to keyboard. I have been following the channel for a few years and appreciate the range of productions offered up. Not keen on horror, intrigued by dystopian visions, and confused by some (usually those that leave you having to make your own ending). There are a few nuggets that leave me feeling totally satisfied with a story with a conclusion. This has been the most uplifting and fun video that I have seen since the "1-minute time machine". Bravo to all concerned.
