This is a romantic movie and such a fabulous movie I bought it even though I had to send off to Taiwan for a copy. I will not testify as to whether a person who hates romantic movies would like this but it got tears from some people and is very easy to love, even for those who usually do not like romantic stories. There are no explosions though. It is the love story of a man who is a Texas street performer and a con woman from Los Angeles who thinks falsely he is going to be a big score. She is beautiful and he is charming. Only logic stands in the way of seeing the obvious attraction. But in an odd way they do complete each other.

It was very refreshing to see Brendan Fraser for the first time in a decade . This movie started with a full head of steam then instead of taking off it seemed to get a bit cheesy and cliched 2.4

After watching her performance in The Keys to Tulsa, Joanna Going's participation enticed me to watch this film and I was not disappointed.

There's a depth and caring to Still Breathing that you don't find in the usual major studio fare.

If you're in the mood for a pleasant little romantic comedy, Still Breathing hits all the right notes. Cynicism need not apply.
