    Awesome film

    The actors in Pieces of a Dream deliver dynamic performances. Skee Skinner pulled it off. This film has a great deal of symbolism, which hopefully will jump start the movement of conscious films being produced again. The ending was totally unexpected and still stays with me. The artist seemed to be a simple character that many can identify with. Coop is the real deal! This guy reminds me of the Nino Brown character in New Jack City from the 90's. Golden had a troubled past which I thought she had gotten over when she became an adult and mother. But like many issues we face in the world today the problems of society came knocking at her door. All in all, this is a film that is a must see. Way 2 go!

    Pieces of a Dream

    Hello Everyone, This is Anita Showalter I played Natasha Toussaint in this film. I would like to thank everyone who came out to see this film. I myself was blown away!!! Getting to see it for the first time on the big screen with a room full of people was incredible. My favorite thing was seeing and hearing the reactions the audience gave, this film is so powerful it speaks to everyone even those who didn't particularly liked it they still talked about it with me to try and understand it. All i know is that this movie needs to be seen by everyone please continue your support by voting on this site and telling us your comments. Thank you again and i hope to see you all at the movies.

    A consciousness raising movie intertwining four lives

    This is a powerful drama that is expertly written, masterfully directed and impeccably acted. I felt this movie emotionally, spiritually as well as physically (there are moments of gripping images). This is definitely not a movie to see if you are looking for humor, although some dialogue is so "real"you have to laugh. It is encouraging to see a consciousness raising movie. This is a movie for those tired of making light of our lives. It deals with issues faced by an urban community in a hard hitting manner yet written with such a subtlety of layers that it leaves you thinking days later. A must see for mature, or maturing, maybe especially maturing, thinking audiences. Indeed "does sin have weight?"

    Rich storytelling

    An engrossing film that touches several peoples lives and weaves them together in a compelling tale of drama and morality. Skee's One way productions creates and movie full of character and weight that sticks to you and takes you along for an incredible ride. Having the opportunity to meet an watch the movie with the team that created it makes you understand how hard they worked to bring their labors to fruition. Skee should be commended for the casting and the great group he assembled to bring his story to life. The dedication and artistry of their writing and the ability for rich storytelling makes this film shine. Great Story Great Film. I highly recommended.

    Great Film

    Pieces of a Dream is a film that makes you think. It put some things into perspective for me personally. There were questions in my mind that I thought only I thought about and Pieces of a Dream attempted to answer some of those questions. I cared about each character and related to them in one way or another. I am a single mother so the character I related to the most was the single mother raising her two boys. Some of the issues that the young mother had are some of the same issues that I deal with myself (in one way or another). I really enjoyed this film and would recommend it to everyone. In my opinion, adults and teens alike will benefit from watching this film. Kudos to everyone involved with bringing this very important piece of art to life.
