Deeply
On Ironbound Island, native Fiona McKay arrives from Europe with her teenage daughter Clair, hoping that the peace of the island will help the girl get over the death of her boyfriend. The girl finds comfort in the company of a visiting American girl and more so in the stories of Celia, a crazy old local who weaves enchanting tales which cleverly combine her own experiences on the island with mystifying legends.

Truly Dreadful Film
Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
A beautiful story. truly the best acting job I have seen in a movie in years. Dunst does a wonderful job as a happy go lucky teenager. She does a great job showing how love can possess anyone. The story of the 50 year heist of fish leaves one wondering who is can be. Dunstdoes a wonderful job acting, but Lynn Redgrave does an even better job in the end. It doesn't come out until the end that Redgrave is Silly. One of the best dramatic acting rolls I have seen in ages. Perhaps the best acting job is done by Julia Brendler. You don't see that she too is the 50 year recipient. The pain and anger she feels at losing her first love comes to play as she realizes she is the one. the movie ends with her accepting this fate and starts to play her violin again. A truly great movie, every piece falls into place at the end. wonderfully written, wonderfully acted, wonderfully directed!
I watched this film today. It aired on WE (Women's Television) -- I am not a woman, but that fact does not disqualify me from knowing that this film is brilliantly directed, brilliantly acted and brilliantly written. Why do I get the feeling that DEEPLY has been relegated to "Chick Flick" TV-land? In my opinion it's far better than any film I've seen at my local Multiplex this year -- far far better.I am not familiar with Sheri Elwood's work as a director, but if this is what she can do on a semi-low budget, bring in the big guns, fellas, because this woman has mega-talent. Don't you powerbrokers out there in Hollywood take the time to watch films like this? Where do you think artistically gifted and talented directors come from -- NYU Film School? Think again and do your homework.This movie gets a 9 out of 10 -- one point lost because of the confusing accents. Dunst sounds like Scarlet O'Hara after she'd been stranded on of the Channel Islands for a few decades.Damien [email protected]
Kirsten Dunst is a beautiful, talented actress. But even SHE could not save this dumb, plodding movie. Once again, Canadians prove conclusively that they canNOT make good films. But Kirsten? My GOD, she looks sexy, even when she issweeping a porch!!! But, if you want to see her really do her thing, watch the movie Spiderman. The kissing scene in that movie is incredibly erotic.Hey, I really like romantic movies. See "Ten Things I Hate About You" or "French Kiss" for romance. This movie? "Deeply" should have been buried, deeply, very deeply. It is pure dreck, except, of course, for the total Dunst fan, who will enjoy watching her beautiful features and amazing grace.
I was touched by this moving film. Kirsten Dunst gives one of her best performances as a girl struggling to understand the world around her and the hidden secrets of her town. Relative newcomer Trent Ford shows promise in his pivotal role. A must see.
