Drew M. @Stonehands211 Apr 13 Such a quietly profound little movie. A movie hasn’t snuck up on me like this one has in a long while. See more greg r @itsgregsworld 03/17/2021 It's in the closing moments that this movie finally shines. It's not much of a gift to the audience, but after the long road to get there, you are happy for it. See more 01/27/2021 Wonderful film, a subtle portrayal of the dynamics of relationship shifts over a decade, a very realistic and enjoyable watch, most will definitely connect! See more dave d @RT34924333 01/14/2021 Soft spoken and understated, 'Fourteen', is also way too self aware and it becomes distracting. There's no doubt writer, editor and director, Dan Sallitt, is trying to tell us something. He has a character even say, "I'm more conversational now". There is also the mention of budgets and I just found it all too inside baseball for a film that seemed like it was a really bad "special" episode of a movie about nothing. This is a slice of life and very real, but as a stand alone 94 minute feature, no thanks. Another in the long line of shorts stretched and I do mean stretched to feature length with lots of scenery, but a story that isn't pushed forward. And despite it being a quiet indy, you have to be very in touch with every little detail which is supposed to draw you in, but instead frustrated me. Normally, I like these films, but Salitt is so unable to take a stand on mental illness, instead letting this slop sit there. It's a shame the filmmaker doesn't get it right, because the acting here, from an entirely unknown cast, is mostly outstanding. They aren't given much to work with, but they do a marvelous job. The final plot twist, which I could see from my porch, ties in the relationship between our two leads, Tallie Medel and Norma Kuhling. This duo need better agents. I want to see them again, perhaps even together. GET IT DONE! Long periods of time often go by from one scene to the next without explanation and I kinda liked it. It's something that grew on me, but it's also distracting. Your hand is definitely not held, but then we'll have two to three minutes of silence. The plot sits. Final Score: 4/10 See more 01/10/2021 A really slow walk in the park that will get you to talk about life and stuff. I loved it.
