Mango Tango
I got to see MANGO TANGO at the Queens International Film Festival where it was nominated for best Screenplay and Best Director for Marianne Hettinger. As far as I know, Marianne Hettinger directed, wrote, produced and acted in this film which turns out to be a strong feature film debut. The film moved me. It's about the search of a Manhattan dancer for the ideal mate. Instead of finding him she ends up with a bunch of neurotic, crazy guys. Not till the end does she realize that her strength and love lie within her and are not 'out there'. Ms. Hettinger reminds me of a female Woody Allen, she has her own quirky humor and style and her acting is superb. There was a lot of laughter in the audience until the film turned darker and more surreal after the first half and reminded me of many lost souls in a big city who will trust any therapist or healer but themselves. I also enjoyed a cameo by Michael E. Knight of 'All My Children' as a Southern Shaman- con artist, and Patrick Stephenson as her Ex-boyfriend. Great sound track and the dance pieces were beautiful. I felt moved by this film, that was done with a lot of talent and heart and I hope that it will find a distributor because it deserves to be seen by many!
