Lovely by Surprise

Warning: Spoilers
This is an incredibly intriguing story of a story within a story. It is like a musician's bit of music, written by musicians for musicians. Everything about this story holds the audience captive until the "end" and sadly, that is where it leaves off, with a multitude of loose ends for the audience to ponder and ask, "What happened?". Even the end was great - it just wasn't yet the best time in the story for an ending, if the final clip was really "The End".

I kept searching for the non-existent continuation for months because there was nothing in the clip that indicated that the story was over. How embarrassing for me to think there was more!

I think the music was well selected for this little show and culminated in an amusing spirit of reflection. My favorite song is at the end of the Lovlier by Surprise (final clip #13). I'm searching for the names of the musicians that did that bit at the end because I really love the song and the lyrics. I wish I knew the name of it.

Great story and good acting. Too bad it ends so abruptly leaving the audience to only guess about all the other aspects the story that were left unfinished. Perhaps there will be a sequel that would fill in the blanks. Crossing my fingers and hoping.

E.K.
