A Beautiful Portrait Of Friendship and Hope

'Talking about Trees' is a beautiful portrait of friendship and hope. With four light hearted protagonists who still maintain the gravity of their situation in a claustrophobic environment. To see them explore their expression in conversation and their pursuits is most inspiring to the rest to us. It only makes us, fellow filmmakers want to capture our own environment in its humblest, most honest form.

A Noble Pursuit, but it's quite Boring

The innate goodness of the subjects' intentions is appealing enough - a group of filmmakers attempt to restore an abandoned outdoor theater to bring back film to their town - but the story moves far too slowly to muster up any notable momentum. The documentary mostly depicts the men sitting around chatting and walking around the abandoned theater, discussing the difficulty of their restoration efforts. In the screening I attended, it was obvious that viewers cared about the group's noble mission, but not enough to sit through the entire film. Several people in my screening walked out within the first hour.
