Apples, Oranges, Lemons & Limes is a more than worthy effort by writer/director Pat Mitchell. It spins a spirited and enjoyable story about Hen, a man who suffers social anxiety, who runs into his Middle School crush at a college-aged party. The love interest, Natalie, is having a bad night in which her date has ditched her for another woman. The film handles well the theme of social anxiety while we learn more about the characters as a hint of romance seems to fill the air as Hen agrees to walk Natalie home from the party. The acting here is terrific, natural, and engaging as Hen and Natalie's connection sparks the question "why were they not friends before"? Further confrontations allow the audience to truly walk in each character's shoes as we suffer and heed with their anxiety. A prodigious and appealing labor of love from filmmaker Pat Mitchell.
