"Great Lakes" was really funny!  I like road movies, and I think that Great Lakes gives a good feel for the region, without being corny like Fargo. I like so many of the locations and roadside stops, and it carried a sense of adventure.  The movie has so much great back-and-forth dialogue.

At a preview in Minnesota, James Byrne talked about how the project had been scrapped several times over four or five years (amazing!).  He talked about finding his cast and getting the picture made.  He also talked a bit about the different midwestern accents in the project and that the woman who played Dara was from North Dakota.  The two leads have really good chemistry and James seemed like a very good director, a good person to work with.

I just wanted to say how exciting and inspiring it was to be there to see the show.  It was really a great production, and I was really glad to be there to see it!
