In the spirit of The African Queen and Romancing the Stone, ALIVE AND WELL tells the story of a mismatched pair. Carla, a big city reporter from the North, must reluctantly work with Southern tracker and Civil War reenactor Zach to research her story. In their quest, they exasperate each other and find much more than either bargained for. An entertaining joyride to make even skeptics believe in true love. Almost by definition, you know how a romantic comedy will end. Whether it's Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, Claudette Colbert and Clark Gable, or Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn, in the final scene they will declare their love for each other. So the measure of a romantic comedy is how engaging the journey. The journey that is ALIVE AND WELL is well worth taking. -Steve Heyl, Edge Los Angeles Wry charms ... authentically funny. -James Hebert, San Diego Union-Tribune There are laughs aplenty. -Anne Marie Welsch, North County Times
