johnjx468 This is the type of movie in which you won't regret watching it after the film is over, but you might think what else you could have done with your time and money if you spent any to see it.

Top-Films The Song of Sway Lake directed by Ari Gold is a « don't miss » film. First, the scenery and the lake are stunning. The colors can be warm and bright. The lake is also wonderful because there is a lot of history going through the past and it looks like it's alive! If you turn the lights off you feel like being part of the movie and you totally forget where you really are. Good feeling! The actors, mainly Mary Peth Peil, Rory Culkin and Robert Sheehan are very talented. They are all different but also connected by a common point: a great nostalgia they all have but with different points of view. They are very interesting. The talent of these actors is great and allows us to love each character with his or her own personality.And then there's the music. It was written by Ethan Gold. It cradles you and goes perfectly with the film. I'd like to add that the film has already won an award at the Laughlin International Film Festival, another one for the Best Picture at Vancouver Golden Panda International Film Festival and a third one for winning the « Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature » at the Seneca Film Festival. Robert Sheehan has also won an award for the Best actor at Laughlin International Film Festival and Mary Beth Peil for the Best actress at Vancouver Golden Panda International Film Festival. It's well deserved because The Song of Sway Lake is superb! Congratulations to Ari Gold and to everybody who worked for the film!

C-movies The Song of Sway Lake is a film written by Ari Gold and Elizabeth Bull and directed by Ari Gold. It's a beautiful, moving film which has to be seen. There are lots of powerful feelings, an amazing performance from the actors, some stunning landscapes and incredible musics. It's impossible not loving it and not being touched.After his father's suicide, a young record collector named Ollie Sway (played by Rory Culkin) returns to the family lake house with his Russian friend Nikolai (Played by Robert Sheehan) to steal a precious record. One day, an unexpected visit from Ollie's grandmother Charlie Sway(Played by Mary Beth Peil) disturbs their search. The Song of Sway Lake is full of nostalgia. Everyone is looking backward, but with a different view. Charlie is like stuck in the past. Mary Beth Peil managed to bring all the sensibility into her character. She is superb and intriguing. Ollie brings the dark nostalgia for things he's never experienced from the past generations. Rory Culkin was perfect to make this. He can bring the pain but he keeps it into himself. He's quiet and thinks a lot. An interesting character is also Nikolai played by Robert Sheehan. He's someone very specific and a bit uncomfortable. He has lots of charm and looks to be perfect. But we can also feel some suspicion against him. Robert Sheehan managed this so incredibly, with an amazing performance. The landscapes and the lake are stunning. The colours can be warm to reflect the beautiful nostalgia, dreams and melancholy of Charlie. But Colours can also be dark to show the dark side of Ollie's nostalgia. The music is a big part of the film. It makes the Sway lake place as a dream, full of elements from the past. It also shows the big connection with the music of Ollie and his father.The Song of Sway Lake is a film we can revisit because there are lots of messages. It's also very interesting to work on the story, the place, the lake and the characters which are all hiding secrets from the past shown from different angles because of the three differents generations. Ari Gold put all his talent into this film and the result is amazing! It's a wonderful movie which has to be shared and seen!
