Hudson

This move is a mix of poetry, kindness and reality that touches anyone with a good soul. I loved it so much, while watching it during my flight. From a cinematographic point of view, the scenes are beautiful, the casting is just top of the top. What really made me realise that this movie is indeed a gem, is the fact that the entire casting doesn't exceed 15 actors. This just gives an insight on how good the script is and how amazing are the actors that each was naturally building his/her character flawlessly without trying too hard. To be honest, this movie is indeed a hidden g that needs to be seen and enjoyed.

This movie was incredible I loved watching this film so much I'm going to see it again!! I'm inspired this film had the perfect balance of comedy and drama With a touch of excitement! I would love to spoiled this movie for you but you just have to see it for yourself to believe my comments!!

First of all this movie is just gorgeous to watch. The cinematography is fantastic and it's set in upstate NY during the fall! The acting is incredible. It's a simple story that draws you in and leaves you feeling good at the end of the film. The cast is all amazing! Looking forward to seeing more from this team. Definitely worth a watch!

My wife and I had the privilege of seeing this film at the Peekskill Film Festival and we were both thrilled. The story is simple, a classic "road trip," but with several surprises along the way. Beautifully photographed in marvelous upstate New York locations, with wonderful performances, particularly by David Neal Levin in the title role. If you like stories about regular (if perhaps slightly quirky) people, this is exactly up your alley. Very much hope to see it again, and that it finds the wide and appreciative audience it so richly deserves.

I saw this film at a festival in LA and I was honestly blown away. The acting, direction, cinematography were great yes, honestly the movie looked like it was made at the highest level of production, but the best part was the simplicity of the story. Its a film that lives in the heart of what makes independent film so special, the characters. I loved watching these 3 interact and Sean Cunningham's direction was restrained, he let the scenes play out and the actors find these lovely moments which is difficult for any first time filmmaker I think. Such a great watch!!! I'm sure I'll see more from this team in the future. I better see this on Netflix!

After his mother's death, Hudson goes on a journey throughout the Hudson Valley to scatter her ashes and perhaps learn a few lessons about life, serve up some imaginary ice cream cones and even get in a few rounds of miniature golf. An accident as a child has left him a timid and reclusive mess of a human being, but he's charming and ends up showing that he knows way more than those in his life who claim to be adults. Directed by Sean Daniel Cunningham, who co-wrote the film with star Gregory Lay, who plays Hudson's cousin Ryan, this movie surprised me because I generally can see through the sentimenality of most films as cheap emotion. Instead, this film has a genuine heart. There's a great appearance by Richard Masur - Clark from The Thing - as Hudson's father, as well as stand-out performances by Lay, Mary Catherine Greenawalt as the hitchhiker Sunrise who comes into their lives and David Neal Levin as the title character. While the tale in Hudson isn't something that breaks new ground, it does stand out by the gentle interactions between its characters, the gorgeous way that it was shot and just that it's so competently made, which seems more and more doesn't seem to happen in major films, much less smaller efforts. If you met Hudson in real life, you may be put off by his behavior. But if you stayed with him, gave him a chance and actually listened to him, you'd end up having a richer and fuller life. This film gives you that in much less time and from the comfort of your home.
