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.
... View MoreIt really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
... View MoreThis movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View MoreThis film is a a witty undertaking of a subject, that could be easily viewed as trite, or an idealized fantasy of what might be, especially with two very attractive female leads as well as supporting cast(both genders). The character realizations could appear, as contrived, but their is a sense of honesty, and hopeful behavior that rings true to the two lead characters. Specifically referencing those of true intimacy of being alone in public sphere.The film moves quickly, and provides a fanciful imagination of what love and love lost could look like between these two ladies, and delves into intimate, while quick similar to that in life, moments of what it feels like to have love, loose it, want to retain it, and maybe win again. Yes, there is something familiar about the plot, and the characters, what is refreshing is the execution, and understanding that it is a bit of a show. Yes, the ending is a bit tidy, however the question that is effective is that of the audience. Is this real? or is this an ideal? Luckily, the films producers and directors provide a clean line of sure, but its really up to the viewer.
... View Morei have no words to say for the movie because i gave it a 9! i mean where do i begin and where do i end? it's a wonderful movie. to those who say the characters were immature and childish to be lesbians well... what is the lesbian handbook because i forgot to buy it when i came out of the closet. i think this movie is so awesome just because it shows raw emotions and somehow everybody can relate to that. it makes me experience different shades of so many emotions. honestly just watch it without trying to see the "types" of people represented. we all are humans! sit back and let it take you with it. honestly it might be slow on how the storyline evolves but its not boring. this comfortable silences and the amazing photography is needed.
... View MoreThis movie is so powerful. If you are a person that has been abandoned by someone you loved, who you thought loved you, without explanation, this movie will have an affect on you. Maybe you are the person who did the abandoning. You can identify with one, if not both, of these women. Some have complained about it being slow or no plot. I will say, you must have some depth to you to enjoy this film. It has very quiet moments, but that is where the intensity lies. These quiet moments are where you are going to feel and remember your old wounds. I have watched this movie several times since the first time, and it sticks with me for hours afterwards. Not many movies these days that have that effect. The two lead actresses did such a good job with their roles. I cared so much about Mal & Zoe by the end. If you are able to watch a movie without aliens/disasters/high speed car crashes, please give this movie a chance. xoxo
... View MoreI wish I could express like others before, what an amazing film this is. I don't think I've been so happily drawn into the maelstrom of another's love relationship since "Blue is the warmest color".This story of Zoe and Mal is unstructured, raw, and very real. Writer, and Director Marina Rice Bader (who also stars as director of a fictional scene re-shooting) creates an amazing story. Eliciting in my opinion, award worthy performances from Sharon Hinnendael and Jill Evyn.While I can see where some may despair over a perceived lack of plot. I see this film however, as an exquisite exposition of the love between two people.
