    Hi Matthew, John from the Montana Film Office here, I've been waiting to see this for years now and I'm glad I found it on vimeo! You did a great job. Come back to Montana anytime!

    Greatly enjoying your films. And thanks for cutting Dry Rain as a film from Montana/Canada and not crash-cut Hollywood. Love the locked-down sequence in the cafe; perfect. Film indeed is so much richer than wannabe-video. Congrats to the entire crew.
    P.S the vise grip was a nice touch.

    Thanks Michael. Seems like very few people really saw the vice-grips. And thanks for your kind words.

    Amazing story telling! Beautiful in every way: photog, score, edit, sound, and don't even get me going on the acting! Amazing performances from your actors. Great film. Period.

    I was speechless when I finished watching this. I was hoping it was just a snippet of a featured length film. The cinematography was beautiful. The direction and dialogue was interesting. Both actors had done an amazing job on delivering their lines and their character development. I like this concept and I am hoping to see more works like this. This is legendary.

    John, thanks for the thoughtful comment. I'm thankful for your feedback. I just wish more people were into the film. I think it either shot over the heads of many viewers and film fest curators or wasn't their cup of team or was boring to them. Who knows, but glad it reached you.

    Your very welcome! I was touched by the way the shots were done, the story and the music. Do you know where can I find the soundtrack or a way to download this clip? It would be great!
