    Spellbinding

    This is so compelling joyous ,charming chilling and heartrending all in the same film . I was cheering Deirdre on as she finally stood up for herself. The empathy for the main character is instant but there is also compassion for the deeply flawed and damaged mother figure. It captures the carefree spirit of young love constrained by the fear and guilt of the grown ups .The setting, the actors and the story are so poignant powerful and moving. A timeless legend lived out in the lives of ordinary people in a small town. I would love to see this become a longer story as it feels like there is much more ro tell.
