Isabel Rose could be the next Susie Pritzy or Mitzy Finger. She has that kind of potential. When you see her on screen you think, My God, what's she doing there? And then you look around and ask yourself, What am I doing here? And then someone tells you to shut up because you are talking aloud to yourself. But you go on... because you must. Very much like this movie. More talented people could not have pulled this off. And I mean that. I mean, I'm not just saying, er writing, that, or this. But I must have ten lines of text before IMDB lets me submit this comment, and I'm almost there. Just a few more words and I will have reached the minimum. I'm almost there. Bare with me. Here comes the end.

If you are a fan of MGM and RKO musicals of the 30s and 40s, you will get the references in this film and enjoy them!!! If not, but like movies that let you escape, you will love this film. It's sweet, clever, poignant, and funny the way a good Cole Porter or Irving Berlin tune is. I saw this movie last night and had a wonderful time. Go see it!!!!! :)

It was poorly shot. Looks Like a rush job, last minute casting is obvious. Writing is very weak. Good for stage, not film. I feel bad for Andrew McCarthy. He's a very good actor who has not been getting good roles lately. This role was not for him. Maybe glad it has been picked up yet. On the festival circuit this film shall stay.

I just saw Standard Time at the Victoria Film Festival. Not just for incurable romantics like me, it should also appeal to fans of nostalgic flicks like "Purple Rose of Cairo". Deserves a full release.Debbie
