My Summer of Love Page #4

Synopsis: A tale of obsession and deception, and the struggle for love and faith in a world where both seem impossible. The film charts the emotional and physical hothouse effects that bloom one summer for two young women: Mona, behind a spiky exterior, hides an untapped intelligence and a yearning for something beyond the emptiness of her daily life; Tamsin is well-educated, spoiled and cynical. Complete opposites, each is wary of the other's differences when they first meet, but this coolness soon melts into mutual fascination, amusement and attraction. Adding volatility is Mona's older brother Phil, who has renounced his criminal past for religious fervor - which he tries to impose upon his sister. Mona, however, is experiencing her own rapture. "We must never be parted," Tamsin intones to Mona but can Mona completely trust her?

Gosh, aren't you clever?

We should teach that Ricky a lesson.

That's Ricky.

Christ, you didn't mention he was fat.

He's not. It's all muscle. Yeah, right.

All right, come on.

Hello. Hi.

God, this is really hard,

but this is my friend, Mona.

And she has just had

to have an abortion.

So what's that got to do with

me? It was your husband's fetus.

Basically, what he did was he

just got her completely wasted...

and took advantage of her.

She's now clinically depressed,

as you can see. I mean...

she's just catatonic, she hasn't

said a word since. Have you, Mona?

I mean, it could be, I

mean, the talk of the town...

at the moment is that you're not

satisfying him enough at home.

We all know when we hit a certain age...

everything starts to go

south-- How dare you come here?

Maybe you should keep

your husband locked up.

Maybe you should castrate your

husband, maybe that'll keep him safe--

Why don't you two just go and get

lost and leave me and my family alone.

No, until you fully understand--

No, just get out of my face.

Don't touch me. Will you just go?

All right, Mona, it's

all right. This is over.

Why don't you just get.... Just go

and leave me and my family alone.

Hi, there.

Mona.

You'll be there tomorrow, won't you?

I have absolutely no intention

of coming to your crucifixion.

Will you be there, please, for me?

Can I come? Yeah.

I need you there, Mona.

We're going.

Do you see that?

# Once again I look upon

the cross where You died #

# I'm humbled by Your mercy

and I'm broken inside #

# Once again I thank You #

# Once again I pour out my life #

# Now you are #

# exalted to the highest place #

# King of heavens,

where one day I'll bow #

# But for now #

# I marvel at this saving grace #

# And I'm full of praise once again #

# I'm full of praise once again #

# Once again I look upon

the cross where You died #

# I'm humbled by Your mercy

and I'm broken inside #

# Once again I thank You ##

Has he got a girlfriend? Has he? F***.

He's got God, he's too busy with God.

With God, his life's

like, one long orgasm.

From morning, noon till night.

The sun never goes down on him.

If anything goes wrong...

we'll slowly bring it down again, okay?

Okay. One, two, three, go.

That's it.

F***ing hell.

Okay, there. Tie it off, lads.

Yes.

If I can be saved, anybody can be saved.

Anybody can be saved. Hallelujah.

The Lord Jesus started speaking to me.

He told me to build this cross.

To claim this valley

back in His name, for Him.

Because there's evil at

work in this valley. Yeah.

There's evil in this valley.

And it manifests itself

in hundreds of ways.

If one person comes

closer to God today...
