"Mike Gibisser is one of the four or five most interesting young filmmakers to come to my attention in the past year or so. His Finally, Lillian and Dan is an absolutely astonishing piece of ultra-low-budget garage filmmaking. Almost a silent movie, the movie's delicate love story is played out--brilliantly, subtly played out, second by second, step by step--not in words, but almost entirely in the characters' gestures, body language, and facial expressions. Gretchen Akers, who plays the lead female lead is amazing. Her face is the most expressive thing I've seen on screen in a decade. Her face is the movie. She makes even buying groceries dramatic and exciting. And Lucy Quinn is almost as terrific in the supporting role playing the grandmother. What a sense of her body. What timing. And what an amazing voice."
