Beneath the Harvest Sky (2014)

It's VanBuren, Maine. Dominic Roy (Callan McAuliffe) and Casper (Emory Cohen) are best friends. Casper's girlfriend Tasha (Zoe Levin) tells him that she's pregnant. He comes from a dysfunctional family. He disrupts class, breaking and entering for his criminal dad Clayton (Aidan Gillen) and hates his mother (Carrie Preston). Clayton pulls him into the world of smuggling drug in from Canada. Dominic hopes to move to Boston with Casper. He lives with his mother (Carla Gallo). He works hard on the potato farm to earn the money to buy a car. Nice girl Emma (Sarah Sutherland) is also working there to pay for college.It has a lot of the trappings of indie filmmaking of today without the something special to distinguish it from the rest. It has the dysfunctional lower class folks. The story is unoriginal. It has the hand-held shaky camera work. The two leads just aren't special enough. They are fine actors but there are not stars. They don't show or allowed to show the spark that would energize this movie. It moves a bit too slowly and needs to elevate the danger much sooner.

I found this movie extremely boring, really long movie where it doesn't happen many things in it (almost 2 hours) If you are looking for a "coming of age" movie as I was, you gonna find this movie boring, and flat, there's no passion, there's no joy or fun The actors are good but it has a really bad script I gave the movie a 4 because I'm a nice guy but it deserves worse I think the problem for me is the relationship between the two main characters, they were friends and they planed to move together but there wasn't a clear explanation of why, or why are they friends?.. why people is gonna be interested in watching a movie where the main characters are in their 20's(17) but the script/history that surround them is for people in their 40's, 50's not for people in their 20's

Raw, honest, amazing actors, excellent soundtrack (and frankly the only full soundtrack i bought for £7.99). A coming-of-age movie that will surely affect ages 16-23.This movie is not for everyone, you should have an edgy self to really appreciate it. Emory Cohen (Casper), Sarah Sutherland (Emma), Callan McAuliffe and Aidan Gillen (Game of Thrones) were amazing actors. A movie well worth watching and forming an opinion. Very, very, very good. If you liked 'Rampage' (the only movie that comes in mind) you will love this movie. It has an aesthetic that is very enticing and an honesty that will blow you away.I give it 10 out of 10 for the moments it offered me!

This movie is so touching and honest it gives me the chills to this day looking back on it. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend it to anyone who is looking for a heartfelt movie with a realistic approach to teenagers growing up in a rough town, whose main goal is to escape it for a better reality. The score is absolutely beautiful and provides a reprieve from the darkness of this film. McAuliffe's and Cohen's performances are very raw and excellently portray two best friends who are extremely loyal to one another despite their differences. I could feel their connection and it never ever felt less than 100% authentic. The other supporting actors were equally as good. Throughout this movie you will continuously be sitting at the edge of your seat in anticipation. "You are here, but not for long"
