Ryan Donowho and Dominique Swain star in
this challenging and beautifully shot
coming of age story.
In the wake of a sudden loss,
Eddy (Ryan Donowho) unexpectedly skips town, leaving his friends to mourn
for him. A vagabond musician, Eddy runs until there is was nowhere left to
run to but home. The Pacific and Eddy captures the uncertainty of a time
when indenties begin to reveal themselves. Finding refuge in the swells of
the Pacific, Eddy must look inward to deal with the loss he truly never
mourned. Following in the tradition Blow Up and Code Unknown where story
information is oblique and often challenging, The Pacific and Eddy keeps
the audience enchanted by it's subtle mystique and visual beauty. In
addition to these core elements, music is monumental in the film's
effectiveness and emotional resonance.
