The Maine coastline is a beautiful backdrop for this film. The girl who played Hannah was great as were the rest of the cast. Jesus said " follow me and i will make you fishers of men "..I think the Pastor, who is also Hannahs adoptive parent may have forgotten that.

Melancholy
A Simplistic Story About Life And Loss. Well told.
So at the start here apparently some kid jumps off a cliff. Kind've a shock to a relatively small island community. Missing but presumed dead, this kid.
The main character in this story, Hannah, she struggles with the fact that she and this jumping boy they exchanged looks right before he jumped apparently. Her story unfolds as a young girl growing up in this religious community. Dealing with Life.
She goes to work on Micheal's father's lobster boat. Michael being the boy who jumped and is presumed dead. Ahh she's only 14. She is going thru the rebellious teen years of course which is not working out well for her 'guardian' who happens to be the minister of the local Church.
+1 Star for the first half of the film, which is an interesting story of this young girl raised in the small community environs along with religion.
+1 Star for the conclusion of the film
Really a touching tale of how different people deal with life and Loss. Nothing outstanding. Nothing horrifying . Nothing overly dramatic. Good storytelling. 7/10
Artsy But Unresolved
If you ever saw Eraserhead, this is it without the taboo but with better scenery. It keeps your attention till the end by using hooks that, when you get to the end, make little conclusive sense. Good acting, but someone is to blame for the screenplay and disappointing ending. This is a film only the pretentious could enjoy.
