A great effort from first time feature filmmaker Jason Matzer.

Dreamland has vitality and emotional truth underlying all its interactions. And the young women, Agnes Bruckner and Kelli Garner, are superb.

Jason Matzner's woozily romantic, gorgeously lensed directorial debut about a trailer park love triangle seems to unspool in a dream of its own, and despite some sketchy story elements, much of it is pretty intoxicating -- that is, until the unambiguous life lessons bring pic down to earth with an earnest splat.

It's got a good creative pedigree and confident execution - as well as nifty design, down to its Hammond-organ Photek soundtrack and desert chic - but this ensemble piece set in a rural mobile-home park steps off the trail into melodrama from time to time.
