Andrew Barker Variety Containing enough wild revelations and tearful confrontations to fill several seasons of an average telenovela. Nov 14, 2008 Full Review Nick Pinkerton L.A. Weekly If this was secretly intended as some kind of satire, it's brilliant. Nov 13, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member A child's TV movie written and acted in by a child and this comes across in the immature script making this a teenagers movie. Acting by Anne is quite bad but it is uplifted by the supporting casts who have worked hard to make the film engaging. Music sounds as if lifted off a porn movie. The story is shallow with no real depth to any of the characters. Now considering that this was written and directed and acted by the 16 year old then one can allow for these errors. My advice is that on the next one, have someone else direct if you are going to act as you cannot at this time handle both. Also, get a descent photographer who knows a lot about lighting, and have another script writer to assist in making your characters have more depth. Nibbles: Tangy Pear N Pecan Noodle Salad. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member The fact that she was 16 when she did this, and was able to pull it off is jaw dropping... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Faded Memories expertly brings you into the sad and lonely world of a teenager. I found the story to be both engaging and compelling. But the performances were not impressive. Not one bit. The cast in not believable. The production quality is very bad. It was written and directed by a 16-year old! This 16-year old also stars in the film, she is not a convincing actress. The story is astonishing, its needs a lot of work. It felt like an afternoon special on ABC. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Incessantly maudlin and downright terrible-- Faded Memories almost has to be seen to be believed. Really, I could swing violent sucker punches all over this strident vanity project, but it would be like kicking an old man on crutches. Now, who the fuck thought funding this embarassing trash was a good idea? This is not an offense to Mrs. Dutoit as a person, but this is one of the worst films that I have ever seen. Sure thing is, it was rotten enough to qualify as a 90-minute hoot in a room full of not-so-sober young adults at a party. I think I laughed here more than I did in all the Will Ferrell films I have seen combined. Thank you, Anne-Sophie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This is Anne-Sophie, I'm the director of FADED MEMORIES. Just to let you know that the movie's DVD is now available at Amazon and other online sites. It's a double DVD with over 2hrs of bonus features. I'm sure you'll enjoy it! Thx :) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Gracias es Muy Buena. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
