Member Rating:  
First time writer/director Matt Nourse explores the uncertainty of the time when true identities begin to emerge in this tale of four friends attempting to come to terms with the loss of a dear friend. Eddy is a vagabond musician. Though he still comes off as his usual brash self even after the incident, it's obvious that his pain runs deeper when he skips town and asks his friends to mourn in his place. But Eddy's got no place left to run, and it isn't long before he comes back home with his tail between his legs. Meanwhile, guitar maker Barron is about as happy with his own picture-perfect life as he is with Eddy's decision to abandon his friends during such a tumultuous time. Barron's wife Farah is growing tired of her life as well, and though she's as striking and tempestuous as ever, the former dancer just can't seem to move like she used to. The only member of the group who seems destined for greater things is gifted painter Chelsea, who's currently making plans to move away and pursue a career. When Eddy returns to town to discover that his friends seem to have lost any remaining sympathy and fondness they once felt towards him, he flees to the Pacific ocean on an inward journey to embrace the loss that he never truly mourned. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    Very SLOW Artsy Fartsy low budget indie. I tried so hard to like this movie. I just couldn't get into it. It looks like it was shot by a high school student and the characters have no depth. I've been a Dominique Swain fan ever since her first film "Lolita" so I really wanted this to work. Too bad it was a waste of time. Her first film was her best and it just went down from there. It's Pretty sad when your career peaks at 12 yrs old. Maybe someday she'll get some better roles.

    The Pacific And Eddy, is deep, moody, and unusually dark. The story lingered and it wasn't fully understandable until it was over but despite a monotonous story line, the film grows on you and keeps you guessing why everyone is in the state that they are in. The cinematography is raw and beautiful, and the soundtrack is hypnotic. You can't just watch this film, you have to breathe it in, and live it. I find TP&E beautiful, unique, sincere, and sad and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys indie films. My favorite character is played by Dominique Swain who is a true ray of sunshine and breath of fresh air in a tense group of characters. Warning, most people may hate this film.
