The Lost Girls enchanting book was blemished by Livia De Paolis' attempt to be all things: Director, Producer, Writer, and Actor of the film. But, De Paolis' decision to cast herself as the Lead Character in the film was unfortunate. The timeless adage about "not being your own lawyer" applied here. It was distracting when Livia appeared as adult Wendy. She didn't have similar facial structure as teenage Wendy; or acting skills equal to the impressive performances by Vanessa Redgrave, Joely Richardson, Iain Glen, and others (which were delightful).

I watch some really stupid stuff so calling this the worst movie I've ever seen is saying a lot. If I put something on that starts slow or has really bad acting, like this one, I will still leave it on and see if it gets better. Some do, some don't, this one just got worse. When they get to Wendy in her adult life I began to tune out. I don't know the actress but I'm not impressed. You can't seamlessly flow from one person to another as the same character when they have completely different accents. All the lines felt forced, there was zero chemistry between the actors. Had it not been for Nana I would have turned it off within 5 minutes. I'm just glad I didn't pay to rent this crap.

Why did I rent this from Amazon? Why didn't I read the reviews? Worst movie ever. Slow. Made no sense. Worst acting I've ever seen. Please / save your money and your time.

I joked to my daughter - someone related to Wendy must have funded this movie and allowed that actress to be in it. Researched and read that the main actress/Wendy (whose poor acting ruined the movie) - was the director and writer!!! It all makes sense now
