Love Everlasting is a 2016 American teen romance film starring Lucky Blue Smith, directed by Rob Diamond.

Plot[edit]

High school senior Bridger Jenkins (Lucky Blue Smith), and his mother Helen (Emily Procter), flee an abusive step-father and husband in Missouri with $197 to their names, and end up in the small town of Greenville, Utah when their truck breaks down. Local mechanic Will Simms (Shawn Stevens) gives them temporary lodging. Will's daughter Clover (Christie Burke) is very shy, and secretly a cutter, haunted by a past incident that left a scar on her left cheek. Bridger also has a scar, on his chest, from a childhood heart transplant. They grow closer, but both face the torment of school bully Bo Chinsley (Austin R. Grant).

Cast[edit]

Production[edit]

The movie was partly filmed in Utah, where Smith grew up, and takes advantage of the scenic beauty of the area. Smith is best known as a model and the film was his acting debut.[1] His father, Dallon Smith, was one of the three producers of the film.

It premiered at the Vista TheatreinLos Angeles on November 9, 2016, and had a limited theatrical release in Utah theaters on February 10, 2017.[2][3]

The movie received mixed reviews, with The Salt Lake Tribune calling it a "a nicely acted but predictably tragic young-adult romance."[4][5] It was also described as a mix of The Fault in Our Stars and Romeo and Juliet.[6] It also received numerous nominations for the 2017 Utah Film Awards, and Shawn Stevens won for Feature Supporting Actor.[7]

The film is unrated, but the director predicts it would have received a PG or PG-13 rating in the United States.[3]
