Still waiting and waiting and waiting...


I use to live the area this movie was filmed and I've heard the visual aspects of the movie were outstanding and I really wanted to see them. Plus the rave reviews for the movie over all.

But I've been waiting to see this film since October 2014! I was hoping it would be released in local theaters because Bruce Greenwood plays one of the leads but nope. Only at film festivals! Ok fine I thought. I'll just wait until it shows at one near me. No problem. I don't mind drive a little bit out of the way. I have patience, right?

The nearest film festival it showed at was 175 miles away and during my regular work days. Ya, I miss my hometown but not enough to blow that much gas money and lose work hours as well. I'll just google images of Alaska or have a old friend send me something off their phone.

I love independent films and such but I wish they didn't make them for just the well off wannabe hipster types :(

Now it stopped playing in June but will start again in October 2015? Does that mean local theaters or DVD or back to film festivals again?

It must of been shown on one of the US TV stations on the 24th September, because it was posted on Facebook. The link is not on Facebook, it's just a message stating it has been released on the web.

We live in Houston, Texas. We were able to rent it today (September 25, 2015) for $7.99 on Xfinity under "Movies - Now in Theaters." Outstanding film!

This is why I wish all movies (especially foreign or indie ones) would come out with VOD/Digital versions for people to buy and download on the same day the movie comes out in theaters. People are going to pirate anyways, and making people who WANT to support wait for ages to see it always seems so filly!

Look at that one horror flick this year, It Follows.. didn't they release there movie on VOD at the same time as it was put out in theaters? We need more of that!

I FINALLY got to see it! I got it on Xfinity like another person had said on here. It was worth it! Very beautiful visually and reminded me of home :) As for the story, I gave it a 7/10. My main complaint was Bart's reactions. He just kinda took it in stride that a teenage girl broke into his room, followed him around and basically became his charge for days without really asking her what the hell was going on or at least why. Otherwise I think it was a good movie.
