Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
dreammy_me I remember having seen this movie at least twice, very late at night, and each time with the same results: a warm feeling of happiness, and love (no kidding, after watching it, I just loved everybody, and not just because it was 3 a.m. and my tiny brain stops working at midnight). This movie will make you laugh and think (that part was harder). And I have to say this, I loved the actors, they were great.
jean-no I saw some more or less recent comedies about sexual choices, homosexuality, coming out... This one maybe the best since ages, because the acting is all right, because the casting is full of surprises (Johnny Halliday - the french Elvis (?) -, Elli Meideros - punk star of the eighties, Marie-France Pisier, and lots of young actors I didn't knew), because it's never heavy,... Worth seeing, to say it in the simplest way.
dr_jkl What an unexpected gem! This film is hilarious! It falls in that very rare "laughter hangover" category ... films that make you laugh so much that you wake up the next morning with an aching gut.Terrific cast! Tremendous performances!The cinematography and blocking are also fantastic. A variety of unique visual techniques are ingeniously employed, serving to underscore dramatic tensions and to heighten comedic effect.Brilliant!
jacquelineth This film deals with coming out, with fun but not in an idealistc world. Lesbians and gays are not pointed out as some people living alone but just as people in love. At the end of the day, is just about love and being yourself.. .
