Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle It's original and poetic, and if you see it you will probably remember scenes from it a year from now, because it's not really like anything else. Rated: 3/4 Dec 15, 2011 Full Review Joe Neumaier New York Daily News "Footprints" looks like a Jim Jarmusch film set inside an Edward Hopper painting. Apr 18, 2011 Full Review Ronnie Scheib Variety Ambitious if airlessly microcosmic. Apr 15, 2011 Full Review M. Faust ArtVoice It evokes a mood of wistful sadness at lives lost to dreaming. Dec 22, 2011 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Mostly appealing and thought provoking adult Hollywood fairy tale. Rated: B+ Dec 3, 2011 Full Review Mark Bell Film Threat Will it change your life? Probably not, but it will entertain, and even if you do find it eventually gets too slow for your tastes, the film at least delivers enough memorable performances for you to at least walk away with something. Rated: 3/4 Oct 31, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Just saw this movie last night. It was awesome, the acting was fantastic! The story multifaceted and fresh! Hard to believe it was created on such a microbudget, the director really understood how to use that to his advantage Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member What we see in FOOTPRINTS is the evolution of a woman's memory, energy and self-assurance that this time around, Hollywood welcomes her Inside...The notion of memory is poignant - in fact, we can all ask the same questions - are we given an identity by those around us which validates our reality? Or is it memories from our past and those who have since left us behind who confirm not only hopes but also our fears. The film techniques used by Steven Peros bring full use of light and color as our protagonist, Sybil Temtchine, takes each necessary step forward in finding her sense of belonging. She brings a complex vulnerability and subsequent truth to the role that makes each of us wonder if things were different, could we turn the steps of time back in order to find more acceptance. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Haunting and poetic mystery about a young woman, apparently suffering from amnesia, who drifts through Hollywood past and present. Excellent! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Lovely film "about" Old Hollywood and Hollywood Dreams. If you are a fan of cinema history, and things that feel a little like folk or fairy tales, then check this movie out. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was a poorly shot, poorly directed, execution of a sub-par screenplay. It seemingly dragged on forever until I finally left the theater, realizing that no resolution was going to satisfy me, short of a zombie attack on Grauman's theater. The best actor was the homeless man in the first 5 minutes, and I would have to guess that he just wandered in off the street. I've never had to walk out a movie before, but when my boyfriend and I did, another woman from the audience followed, leaving about 4 people behind. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member For some additional glowing reviews of FOOTPRINTS: http://www.campuscircle.com/review.cfm?r=12954 http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/5707543-footsteps-a-review http://wehonews.com/z/wehonews/archive/page.php?articleID=4607 "IMAGINATIVE SWEET AND INTRIGUING.
