Somewhere in Time
Somebody Pass Terry A Hanky
Filmed on the beautiful (and frozen in time) Mackinac
Island in Northern Michigan, this moody, romantic tale of a playwright
who longs for a mysterious woman (Jane Seymour) and travels back
in time to find her will not be for all tastes. It is slightly dated,
but incredibly sweet and beautiful. Reeves shows what a handsome
and gifted actor he was, and Seymour melts your heart with her wonderfully
genuine performance. This is a project made purely out of love and
the DVD fortunately has enough extra material to give the viewer
some interesting insight behind the passion for this material, including
interviews with a now wheelchair-bound Reeves, making the material
that much harder to watch. A true sentimental journey, this film
must be seen by anyone with an open mind and heart. A very literate
and thoughtful film.
