Storyline

Paper Heart follows Nick and Charlyne on a cross-country journey to document what exactly "love" is. Interviewing ministers, happily married couples, chemists, romance novelists, divorce lawyers, a group of children and more, the determined young girl attempts to find definition and perhaps even experience the mysterious emotion.

Critics consensus

“Equal parts charming and refreshing, Paper Heart is a quirky mockumentary led by the endearing Charlyne Yi.”

S

Sarah Cohen

RTTime OutNov 6, 2009

The segments featuring real people are genuinely affecting, but the realisation that everything else is probably being acted - that truth may be polluted by hoax - gives this otherwise lightweight film a sly, subversive edge.

W

Wendy Ide

RTThe Times (UK)Nov 6, 2009

Whimsical, solipsistic and self-indulgent, Paper Heart represents everything that is wrong with American independent cinema.

P

Peter Bradshaw

RTGuardianNov 6, 2009

A world-beatingly annoying and pointless "docu-romcom".

M

Mike Massie

RTGone With The TwinsNov 29, 2020

The quirky characters and creative presentation balance out a wandering plot.
