Jerod S The family is selling their vacation home in France and the mom really gets the short end of the stick. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/28/24 Full Review vuesguk This movie soooooo Boring Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/25/23 Full Review isla s I liked the cinematography and the musical score in this film - it felt like quite a gentle and poignant film to an extent, depicting two adolescent, teenage boys expressing their emotions in a way perhaps not expected of people their age. Indeed there's something poetic about it - the mix of classical/instrumental music and the camerawork focussing on the expressions the characters give and semi imagined scenes at time. It should perhaps be said that there are clearly sex references and more specifically depictions of masturbation, which may embarrass some and as far as thats concerned, its not so 'gentle' maybe but its certainly not something seen in an entirely exploitative way a lot in every scene. I liked the eye contact, the character development between the 2 teenagers and learning more about their circumstances via the discussions they have and the body language. The performance by Alex Lawther is particularly memorable. One of the teenagers is French, so there is a fair bit of French language present, hence its partially subtitled. I thought this was a quite well made film and so yes, I'd recommend it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Surprisingly effective tale of three lonely people at a crisis in their lives. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautifully shot and well put together, but a budding potential romance between a young couple never quite flowers, and a dramatic subplot involving parents threatens to swamp the movie and drown Juliet Stevenson. Very nice turn by the lead actor. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautiful, deeply touching; and as happens so often in real life, there may be nothing new in this film, but the details feel unique to these characters. I watched it twice. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
