Not Forgotten, unfortunately
Last night, as part of the Out Takes film festival I saw Gone, But Not Forgotten at the Academy cinema. This was low budget and I hope future productions will be better as the premise for this film was good.
Gone, But Not Forgotten tells the story of Drew Parker, a small town forest ranger, who rescues a man during a storm in the mountains. The man, suffering from amnesia, remembers only his name: Mark. The only clues to Mark's past are snippets of nightmares that slowly unfold the events of that fateful day. As recovers his identity, he falls in love with Drew. The two are forced to deal with Mark's past when it comes to reclaim him.
"As he remembers who he was, he discovers who he is, and who he really loves."
Unfortunately the characters did not have the chemistry the roles needed, the dialogue, at times, was similar to that of an early soap opera. (Quiet country hospital scenes do that to me.) I do not understand why Out Takes scheduled two showings for this film.
As this was a low budget film I can hope that there is enough promise to allow a bigger budget for future films from these people.
