"Lovesong." Another indie gem.

It's a story about two women, Sarah and Mindy, who were close friends in college. They get together several years later for the first time in ages. Sarah has a precocious young daughter and a husband who is constantly away on business, and Mindy is a free spirit. They spend a day or two rekindling their friendship. Cut to three years later to Mindy's wedding weekend where the two friends reunite. It's a total chick-flick, which is fine with me--I love chick flicks. The scriptwriting, acting, and photography are all perfect. I can't understand why movies like this never get the attention they deserve, yet the crappy, overproduced Holly blockbusters gross millions. Go figure.

Here's a link to my review and a trailer:

to watch. And I agree, the "Indie" movies never garner the attention the deserve....think it could be because they don't have the backing of the likes of the Weinstein's, Coen Bros, etc....?
