Herman T @System2 Dec 27 67 OMG AHHAUAGAHAHAHH See more Toby C @jhonnycheese7 Dec 15 67 67 67 67 67 haha funny meme go brrrrrrr See more 08/23/2021 A little bit of too much info in a short time period of a movie is what lowers my score but it is a good time piece, especially for an Indie. I had family in the service during Vietnam; father USN, WO3 Seabees also in the NYC Hard Hat Riot 1970 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_Hat_Riot and uncle WO USA Chopper pilot. Now those hippies are the Democratic Party!! See more 12/31/2018 Period pieces are expensive, so the fact that "Summer of '67" manages to feel authentic to the era on an indie budget is truly impressive. Much of this comes down to the gorgeous, sweeping wide shots and a soundtrack that is both true to the times and simply enjoyable. Together with the subject matter, a modern take on the domestic ramifications of the Vietnam War in America, Sharon Wilharm crafts a character study that captures a moment in history through intimacy rather than scope. See more 12/14/2018 Sharon Wilharm is the scribe and director of "Summer of '67," an American tale rooted in the social upheaval of the 1960's. Milly and Kate are sisters forever affected by the witnessing of their mother's own suicide. As we live through their maturation, we soon find them romantically involved with men who will soon become soldiers serving in the Vietnam War. Verily, both women must live their lives with the constant fear that their young loves may never return home, and their behaviors and actions arising from those fears are the primary drivers of the film. "Summer of '67" seems positioned as a Christian film, yet we don't feel shouted at from the pulpit. Instead, the film relays an earnest story about living Real Life in one of America's most profound and unique periods. The acting is sound, and establishes the sincerity of these characters. And the look and feel of the film are on-point - the wardrobe, the period vehicles, and the music selection are all major contributors in establishing "Summer of '67" as a film that visually and emotionally reflects a critical and transformative period in our history and character. See more 10/10/2018 The Wilharms did a great job on this. I was especially grateful with how they covered a serious topic with creative tact. Sharon always has amazing costumes, and Fred always has wonderful cinematography. The acting was great, and I especially appreciated seeing Mimi Sagadin play a monster-in-law! What fun!
