#1 Cheap Paper Heart Reviews




Available at Amazon Limited Special Price!! See Now!!


Paper Heart takes you on a journey to find the meaning of true love, in a rough informal style that looks like a documentary. Charlyne Yi, pessimistic about true love, travels across the US interviewing a wide variety of people and in the process ends up finding her own complicated relationship with Michael Cera (Arrested Development, Juno..). There's the Las Vegas wedding chapels, the biology professor, the high school sweethearts married for nearly 50 years. Stories shared along the way are re-enacted through animated cardboard cutouts, adding to the "low-budget" feel.

Initially, you'd swear this was a real documentary, but there are just too many scenes that seem TOO perfect, and when you realize this, the film looses some of its magic.

What makes this movie enjoyable, in the end, is that the characters don't take themselves too seriously, and there is some good off-beat humor throughout.




Paper Heart Overview


Charlyne Yi does not believe in love. Or so she says. Well, at the very least, she doesn’t believe in fairy-tale love or the Hollywood mythology of love, and her own experiences have turned her into yet another modern-day skeptic.

Follow Charlyne across America as she and her good friend (and director) Nicholas Jasenovec search for answers and advice about love, by talking with friends and strangers, scientists, bikers, romance novelists, and children. They each offer diverse views on modern romance, as well as various answers to the age-old question: does true love really exist? Charlyne’s pursuit to discover the nature of love takes on a fresh new urgency when she meets a boy after her own heart: Michael Cera. As their relationship develops on camera, her pursuit risks losing the person she finds closest to her heart.

Combining elements of documentary and traditional storytelling, reality and fantasy, Paper Heart brings a fresh perspective to the modern romance and redefines the classic love story.
