Hello Lonesome (2010)
This is a delightful film dealing with 3 different groups of people gently and imaginatively dealing with the reality of the aloneness of the human experience.

This is a lovely and intriguing film filled with humanity, humor, pathos and most importantly whimsy. The story unfolds in such a gentle, sensitive yet matter-of-fact way that the viewer immediately consents to be taken along as part of a journey cushioned with the innate feeling that real, though maybe quiet, magic is possible, even available in real life to real people. The actors all do a fine job, particularly Lynn Cohen, James Urbaniak, and Kamel Boutros. First time director, Adam Reid brings to the screen a palpable empathy for the characters and has the light touch that a more experienced director might have developed. I look forward to future work from him.
