Review of I Am the Bluebird

I too saw this film at the Atlanta Film Festival. Overall I enjoyed this film, but I still felt like it was a little too cryptic for its own good. It was a little hard to follow at times. There was some good and bad acting in it, but the disconnect I had was believing Robert Pralgo as the father. This was not due to a poor performance but bad casting as Robert looks far too young to have what appears to be a 25 year old son. (And an 18-21 year old daughter) For the budget they had on this, they did a good job. The script was a little vague at times and rambled some, but eventually the main mystery is finally explained. There were a few things that never made sense, like why the girlfriend had a foreign accent, but it wasn't critical. If you like to support indy films then I recommend watching this film at least once. I think all of the people involved in this film did a fair job of making an interesting film, but I am sure they will grow and do better work next time. You can see the promise in the work done here.
