In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I thought that this film may have potential, but I was severely disappointed. After watching it, I felt that I had been misled into wasting 100 minutes of my life away by a deceptive cover. Three things about the cover of this movie were specifically misleading: namely, several film festival awards were listed, the film was compared to "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," and the cover image contained some beautiful scenery, which had me hoping for some quality photography if nothing else. I only mention these things because they are what tricked me into watching this movie, and I hope that perhaps someone will see this review and avoid making the mistake of wasting time watching this movie like I did.As far as the movie itself, I did like the idea of the black and white short film-like dream sequences, and based on the movie cover, I was looking forward to some beautiful scenery if nothing else, but the characters and dialogue absolutely killed any chance this had at being a decent film. Both of the two main characters were simply unlikable. The dialogue was awkward and uninteresting, and the story never led anywhere in particular. I made an IMDb account just so I could write a review of how absolutely terrible this movie was; hopefully my point has gotten across.

I got to see the film on DVD as it was never released on screens in Kuala Lumpur where I live or at least I did not hear about it. It was absolutely one of the best films one could ever wish for if they were into films with a straight story whose taste will be with you like forever. Throughout the film and almost in every scene I had this weird feeling that I have been to those places before or at least once have had a dream like that, especially in the club scene with the mind-boggling music in the air. It really blew me away.The acting was just awesome as the two were showing their true characters and had nothing to hide from one another. Alison, a naughty girl with all that energy, had come cross the young Wes who seemed to have nothing in common with her at first but as the story went on, they were so incredibly bound together that you could clearly see the effect of this simple but strong connection between them in their life...Wes was talking about the transfer of energy in some scene in the film while Alison had no clue what it was like but the film showed this movement of energy so well between the characters. I had never seen a movie like this making me wish for such moments as every scene was telling the story of a dream...I believe movies like "All the days before tomorrow" are created once in a lifetime and I strongly believe we need more of this type to show the great power of true joy and happiness and I think happiness was well- defined in every second of this movie...

I think this is a really great film! It was beautifully shot, the actors were very good, and the story touched me by it's poetry and humanity. It's hard to do a film about a love story and still have something new and original to show and I think François Dompierre did it with great talent! The black and white transition with Richard Roundtree in the desert were very inspiring and funny! The rhythm of the film was perfect for me, with nice moments of silence and music, by the way, great soundtrack also! This is remarkable work for a first film! I'm very impressed! I think François Dompierre has a great talent and I really hope that we will see his next film soon!

Nice first-time effort by Francois Dompierre . Kudos to him, actor Joey Kern , and Lindsey Davis , Art Director for staying after it's East Coast screening at the Stony Brook Film festival for the Q & A .The frustrating , platonic "love story" was a little slow in developing , but tended to become more fleshed out as the movie wore on and the character's traits and aspects were revealed to us in the audience . The use of the dream sequences with Richard Roundtree , were somewhat vague , but did tend to lead into the next chapter or vignette . The desert landscapes spoke volumes of the "relationship" between the two main characters Wes (Joey Kern) and Alison (Alexandra Holden) . Warm and enticing , yet empty and foreboding . This non-committal "dance" between the two directly echos many , many relationships in our modern , fast-paced materialistic world . (Many that i have personally encountered ,and with some of my friends) . Bravo to Francois to presenting this movie in such a way, yet leaving the "possibilties" open for something more substantial in the future .The acting was top - notch , as they lead us on their journey's of evolving , maturing , and feeling out what "fits' in the present , and what might be a "best" fit .... for each one in the future . ( I can certainly see continued success for both Joey & Alexandra ) .For the average film - goer , this film may be a bit tedious and frustrating ( as was evidenced in the crowd around me ) . I would recommend this more for an artsy , thinking , engaged viewing crowd , who recall having youth and time on their side , floating through modern life ...... before tomorrow ..... Life ... and the overhead theater's lights ... kick in !
