At the New Jersey shore, young Julie Peterson (Scout Taylor-Compton) saves the life of a drifter who's on the skids. Going one further, Julie resolves to save him emotionally, too, by instilling the gift of hope. But first, she has to contend with a local sheriff who wants the drifter gone and an admirer who's jealous of Julie's relationship with her new "project." Soon, a chain of events is set in motion that will change everyone's lives.

there are all sorts of ways to deal with what life hands you, but scout's insight in 'tomorrow is today' makes us all shed a tear. given nothing less than a raw deal, scout has plenty of reason to give up. i know i would. but this beautiful, young, teenage girl proves endurance does not necessarily strenghten with age. scout's outlook on life is angelic. her optimism contagious. by believing in the eternal, scout proves stronger than grown men. this is the type of movie that you cannot leave without feeling guilty for being so self-consumed in our over consumed world. if only a scout could be present in all of our lives, maybe the world would be a little more grateful. thank you to all who helped create this! i truly believe it should be shared.

This is a very well-made film. Lumiere manages to capture the emotional struggles of each of these characters with seeming ease of his craft. Hefti delivers solid written material for the team to play from, and the cast understands the story as both individuals and cohesive unit members. The feel of this film is consistent throughout, and we found ourselves concerned and hopeful for the main players...Excellent performances by Taylor-Compton, Hefti, Draper, and Ken Arnold, strong and a compelling storyline made this an extremely enjoyable film to watch.Good luck, guys!!!!

Great acting. Scout plays a compassionate character. She and Mark Hefli have great chemistry. He's convincing as someone who is lost, both spiritually and physically. Ken Arnold is definitely an actor to watch for. He's very convincing as Scout's father and shares her empathy for Mark Hefli. The cinematography alone is worth watching. I love the shots at the beach. Good choice of shots. They really help show you what's going on beneath the surface. The story is compelling. It keeps you wanting to see more. The music definitely helps enhance the mood of the film. I would recommend it for anyone who appreciates a good movie that is character driven. There was hardly a dull moment. The suspense of how Scout and Mark Hefli will resolve Mark's fight with the past keeps you want to see more of the film. It's like an Altman film where everything is connected, and you realize it by the end of the film how.

It isn't often that you can watch a movie these days that is truly "heart warming." Tomorrow is Today involves thought,compassion,and love... It made me think, it kind of made me cry (though I won't tell anyone) and it certainly left me with a good feeling about life! Lumiere is an extremely talented director and Hefti gives a beautiful performance... Scout Taylor-Compton is obviously doing well for a reason! The sets were awesome... I liked how barren and isolated the beach scenes were... If a young girl can be someones savior it kind of makes us question who we as adults should be lending a hand to. Good job guys!!!
