Love has the power to make you take what isn't yours... Ronnie thinks he is never going to fall in love. Then, all hope almost gone, he meets Rita. Love hits him swiftly, and Ronnie finds he can't let go. Even when Rita begins to say strange things; about raising a family, with the baby next door. When talk crosses over to action, Ronnie must choose whether to do what's right, or hold onto the only love he's ever had. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

Perhaps it is because Ronnie is such a vulnerable, sad character. Alone in the world since his mother died, he is living the life handed to him. Still in his dead parent's house, surrounded by their possessions, he seems lost, on hold if you like, waiting for somebody or something. Rita, on the other hand, although also alone and living in a bedsit, is more driven. Desperate, edgy, there's something much more alive about her, albeit dangerous. Ronnie's attraction is easy to understand, and somehow even more poignant as you wonder where this relationship is heading.
In such a short form, there's a lot that happens in RONNIE AND RITA. Good character development and connection go hand in hand with a clever plot arc and an atmosphere of foreboding. There's plenty of pace and tension, with enough twists and turns to balance out that nagging sense of inevitability.
Very cleverly done, RONNIE AND RITA is one of the best local noir-styled stories this reviewer has been fortunate enough to encounter in a long time.
