Production
Development and pre-production
Executive producers Nike Imoru and Rebecca Petriello optioned the script in 2018 after being intrigued by its themes of age and aging, with hopes that audiences would relate to the protagonist's journey, and the story's message that changing "“just one life for the better” can lead to radical and transformative shifts in ourselves."[4] On August 13, 2019, the Board of Directors at Washington Filmworks' Local Lens Program gave approval to have the film shot in the state.[5] On November 15, 2019, James Faulkner was cast in the lead role of Jonathan Robbins, marking his second collaboration with writer and director Andrew Hyatt.[6]
Filming
The film was shot on location in Spokane, Washington, London and Marlow from November 2019 and into early-2020.[7][8]
Post-production
Post-production work on the film was done remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[9]
Release
On November 5, 2020, Moonstone Entertainment acquired the world sales rights to the film ahead of that year's virtual edition of the American Film Market.[10] It held its world premiere virtually at the Seattle International Film Festival on April 8, 2021.[11][12]
Reception
The film, as of April 14, 2021, received mixed reviews from critics. Stefan Milne of Seattle Met was mixed about the film, writing that "It doesn’t know quite where it is, or what it is. Its depiction of small-town Washington trades in the broadest of caricatures, which then veer dully into tropes of rural authenticity (everyone turns out to be kindhearted and generous). The comedy doesn’t land, and the drama—even in Faulkner’s able hands—skews tired and maudlin."[13] Josiah Teal of Film Threat praised Faulkner and Knuppe's performances but criticized the uneven tone of the film, citing the characterization of Villa's "Tiny Hammer" as one of the main reasons. He went on to add that it was "an uplifting film about finding your place in the world. If you're a fan of the genre or want to see a solid Jonathan Faulkner performance outside of Westeros, this is a solid watch."[14]
