      Audience Member Refreshingly real, a poignant film about real life issues. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Well paced family story held my attention throughout. The characters were human scaled, the interactions emotive and real, and the acting sincere and of high quality. I was not alone in needing a few tissues to get through this poignant tale, filmed reportedly in just 18 days in the glorious WV hills. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I saw Angel's Perch in Raleigh this past week with one of my best friends from high school. We both grew up in West Virginia and had both been to Cass and, of course, rode that fabulous train. Angel's Perch is something that the people of West Virginia can be truly proud of. What a great movie... and message. The actors, the scenery, and all round development of the story, was one best I've ever seen. No one in the audience moved, nor did anyone check their cell phones (this includes myself), or chat with those around them... Everyone's focus was on that movie screen. That's a first for me. I've never seen a movie where at least one person didn't get up and leave the auditorium for one reason or the other. Angel's Perch is a first in many ways. If you don't go see it, you are depriving yourself of, quite possibly, the best movie of the year... Sheree Alderman, Co-Editor and Entertainment Writer for Beach Carolina Magazine Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie is fantastic. It brings to light the true battles of Alzheimer's. Not Hollywood version of this terrible disease but the true to life daily struggles. You did not see Polly as an actress, you saw a woman with Alzheimer's. I recommend this movie to anyone. Especially if you have a loved one with this disease. This is a must see. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Thought it was a lovely film and a sweet story. It was nice to see a story about the onset of Alzheimer's that wasn't totally sad. Very charming. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Great film with wonderful actors telling an endearing story of family devotion & courage- and all in an amazingly beautiful small-town setting. A must-see. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
