Hi all,
I have just ordered this film. The critics on Amazon are mixed to say the least, you can well guess I suppose that I care not a hoot about the film and its
merit. It is k.d. I want to see!! Nevertheless, the film is important to me as a fan because she chose to have that small part in it and then I don't
think she would have agreed to be in a film that did not "talk" to her in one way or another. It is with this in mind that I want to see it. Of
course, she has said many times that she did not understand acting and clearly this is only a sort of exploration for her and yet I think with all the
objectivity I can muster, that she is good at acting, perhaps very good. My partner who is not the one to tell me things just to please me ( far from it!)
said more than once after watching Salmonberries and from other things too that she thought her a very good actress. Of course, my partner is not a film
critic and her opinion is just that,an opinion but then she is rather sensitive and can readily " feel" atmospheres and people so I do value her
opinion very much. What do you think of this film and of my adored Salmonberries?
