"Charlotte Sometimes" theatrical trailer

This was my first feature film as writer/director.  I shot it in 2001 and finished it in 2002.  In 2003 it came out in theaters and was nominated for two Independent Spirit Awards.

"...UNCANNILY REALISTIC, MYSTERIOUS and EROTIC!

This is a relationship picture that plays like

an emotional thriller." --Roger Ebert, THE CHICAGO SUN-TIMES

"...GORGEOUS!...A smartly made, hedonistic

spectacle of alluring, nubile characters, sun-warmed narcissism

and breathtaking color that approaches the exoticism

of Vietnamese filmmaker Anh Hung Tran

("The Scent of Green Papaya" and "Cyclo")." --Desson Thomson, THE WASHINGTON POST

"A WORK OF THE UTMOST SUBTLETY AND PERCEPTION!

The outstanding feature debut of writer-director

Eric Byler, who understands the power of the implicit

and the virtues of simplicity and economy. ...Every image is

charged with wit, significance and emotion. Would that all

love stories were as sophisticated and amusing as

the satisfying "Charlotte Sometimes." --Kevin Thomas, THE LOS ANGELES TIMES

"...NOTABLY CINEMATIC STORYTELLING! The deft shading Byler elicits from his thesps is of a piece with his dramatics and his understated, artful approach to compositions and movement.."

--Robert Koehler, VARIETY

"...Writer-director Eric Byler demonstrates a refreshing trust in his material and his audience, crafting a compact, intriguing drama from understated performances and a subtle visual sensibility."

--Sheri Linden, THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

" A SEXY, SURPRISING ROMANCE!

Idemoto and Kim make a gorgeous pair... their scenes brim with

sexual possibility and emotional danger." --Carla Meyer, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
