Director Jesse Low brings us "Lost Heart". Lost Heart is about Hannah Sweet (Melissa Anschutz) a country music star. She is spiraling out of control and on a destructive path. Hannah returns home for her father's funeral. A father that's been out of her life for awhile. She had run away as a teenager and hasn't been back home since. Her father supposedly died after a UFO encounter. She befriends Milo (Don Most) the local pastor. He is a fun loving kind spirit who is into conspiracy theories and offers his help towards Hannah. He tries to get her back in her families life and even a seemingly impossible task of getting back in her mother Alma (Victoria Jackson) life. Hannah has no desire and just wants to pay her respects and not get involved with her family that she has fled from. Because of the circumstances she tries to pacify her true feelings and get along with everyone. Like her father she abuses alcohol and continuously drinks. Her father's drinking led to abuse of her. She keeps fighting it but her family and people around offer her love and condolences. They offer her guidance and she soon starts looking in the mirror and learns a lot about herself and what has put her were she is. Lost Heart is a great heartwarming movie perfect for the season. Everyone excellently performs there roles with such dedication and warmth you really feel the story that unfolds. What could be a very depressing sad story is delivered with such warmth that you will smile, cry and laugh out throughout. Don Most has a chance to show his versatility of his acting abilities. In my opinion one of his best and surely memorable performances. He commands in every scene he is and proved what a great actor he is. His smile warms you and his delivery really has you listening to every word he says. Josh Perry, who plays Chip is an amazing actor and really does a fine job here. He just makes you want to hug and hang out with him. What a gifted young man which I hope we see a lot more of him. Melissa Anschutz has a difficult and very demanding role but played it with such authenticity you really felt for her. Sometimes sorrow, sometimes anger. But always respectful of her brilliant convincing performance. The cinematography is beautifully executed throughout the charming town which is not only a back drop but brilliantly shot to get the feeling of the story. While a religious message is apparently the message it's not preachy but evenly played out so this can attract a wide audience. This movie overall is a feel good movie. It shows that no matter how far you wander and loss faith. If you have people that love and keep the door open you can always come home. While not a Christmas movie this is perfect for the season and a family oriented movie. Pop some corn and gather your loved ones for this wonderful movie.

What a beautiful movie that shows that you everyone has issues . Game and fortune do not guarantee you joy in life but through the teachings of God and repentance you can find a truly joy filled life. Absolutely loved this story and all the wonderful characters that brought the story to life. Congratulations on a well done film!!! I look forward to seeing this again.
