The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
This is a self-exploration film disguised as a love story. Two people whom aren't necessarily in great places in their lives fall in love with each other and find comfort in that in each other's company their problems don't exist. However, this doesn't stop them from having to face them. This is really one of those it's the journey not the ending that matter type of movie.The acting is good if not great, same for the direction. The writing was spot on, and didn't say more than it needed to say. I don't think there was an unnecessary bit of information in the story or dialog. Music was good as well.All in all, this was a well paced emotionally involving drama that is rewarding to the viewer in the end.
