Anatomy of a Love Seen (2014)

Better Late Then Never

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

I didn't know what to expect and I decided to watch it mainly because the plot seemed to be very cheesy and romantic but this was not what I got. I ended up really enjoying the movie but not for the reasons I expected to (see; cheesy plot with a lot of fluff). I was blown away by how much emotions were conveyed by all of the actors (the cast is almost entirely made up of women and all of these actress delivered in my opinion an incredible performance). The dialogues were well written and not at all predictable but what really hit me was how the two actress managed to say so much without opening their mouth. Even in moments were the dialogues were the main focus of the scene the body language never ceased to amaze me. I think that those scenes were the verbal confrontation became really powerful were amazingly written, developed and performed. I loved the scene /SPOILER ALERT/were they were all screaming at each other because I would have never thought that it would have gone that way /END OF SPOILER/. In a way I feel like I can say that a lot of the scenes in the movie had me holding my breath and cry because of how truthfully they were. I need more movies where you can feel like you know exactly what one character is going through even if you've never been there and more movies that leave the path of predictability without necessarily being too extravagant or coming off as unreal. Everything about this movie was real and could be felt.

I am honestly surprised by the low rating of this movie. After checking the rating on IMDb.com a few days ago, I decided not to watch it (though it's available for free on Netflix) - I couldn't sleep last night and thought I'd give it a try anyway, the worst case would be that I'd fall asleep ;) But boy was I surprised - As the critics say, the movie's pace is slow, yes. But what it lacks in speed, it makes up in intensity. Or perhaps the pace causes the intensity, along with the brilliant acting. If I had to summarize the movie in three words, REAL, RAW and RELATABLE would probably be it. Because real life isn't chasing from one plot twist to another. And love can deeply hurt and we might have to spend some time in the same room with someone we have a past with and face those feelings.

This movie is awful. Just people talking over each other, melodramatic, self-absorbed, unscripted crap. The dialogue is just a bunch of, "Oh. Hey. How are you? Good, yeah, me too. Thank you for being here. Are you feeling OK? OK good, yeah, alright. I appreciate you being here. Oh, hey, how are you? Good to see you. Wow, yeah. You'll be fine. Good, OK."That's pretty much the film. Just stretch it out for 80 minutes and sprinkle with crying, mumbling heart-to-heart conversations, slow piano music, and painfully long shots of people "going through something".I truly hated this movie.

This is the kind of 'rare' storyline you see at midnight, you know? If you don't pay attention then you will get lost very easily thinking something huge happened in the meantime. I wonder why there always has to be a redhead girl in this kind of movies. So dramatic and full of emotions.The movie never starts nor ends and that's the catchy part of it... If you like drama and those little heartaches a movie can give you and want to open up some feelings then this is the movie for you. I am personally adding this film to my top 10. I didn't even wanted to see the last minutes because I was wishing it would have never ended. I understand how beautiful it is letting something just for your imagination but I still want to see more and every little detail from the events shown in this film.Not for everyone Denfinitely, but a master piece to others Just as Lost and Delirous from Léa Pool
