Summary: should be called "desperate and single"
Review: I expected Harvard alum Nina Davenport to create an insightful film about marriage and women's choices around it. (Do women's expectations of marriage change years after the ceremony? How? ). Instead, I found this film to be a whiny, needy inspection of the filmmaker's frustration with her boyfriend who -- true to stereotype -- can't commit. In between, she jealously analyzes the couples whose weddings she films. To watch this intelligent director/writer/producer/editor do nothing more than dissect her boyfriend's statements with her friends and family, and endlessly discuss whether she should stay with him, was painful. In good faith, I watched till the bitter end. I regret that I didn't turn it off after 10 minutes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Superb Documentary!! Nina Davenport Rules!!
Review: I found this documentary to be more than moving! From beeing torn with feelings of beeing alone or beeing in love, you will see it all. This movie is great for all walks of life. I recomend this to any who are unsure of themselves as a companion to those looking desprately for one.

Summary: Impressive, touching, thought-provoking
Review: I saw this documentary in a theatre when it showed in NY and remember being so impressed with what the filmmaker had been able to do. She wove her own personal story into the broader story of other womens' lives, and marriage in general, and it made for a really interesting movie. Some of the moments she captured (like a birthday party for her boyfriend where his ex-girlfriend was also there) were just fascinating. Totally worthwhile to see this movie.
