Ilaria M I would have preferred more sensuality and less songs. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/05/24 Full Review Audience Member One of my personal favorite movie. It is just a mood for 1h and a half, that makes you question the essence of relationship, life and family. Deeper than it seems, some as the characters such as the mother or Clothilde the little sister are very interesting to watch. Paris is also in the center of the movie, but not a polished version of the city of light - a true paint that you'll understand if you had the luck to be live in Paris. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Ok, so this is another Louis Garrel film where he finds himself in a ménage a trois, nothing new for a fan of his work, like me. I expected a lot from this film, it was a musical, it had a threesome and it had a gay plot twist. It should've been my favorite film at least for a decade. But this movie has a lot that I simply cannot let go. Ismael's girlfriend has one of the dumbest deaths I've ever seen on a film, like for real. Besides his ménage a trois wasn't a real one, cause it seemed to me that Alice was constantly fighting with Ismael for Jules' attention. The only time I really thought they could work out somehow as a couple was when they were singing "Il faut se taire" which was like three minutes I think. So one thing leads to the other and Voilá!, this random guy that is madly in love with Ismael keeps waiting for him after work and even though he has clearly said to him to stop doing that, they always end up having sex, that same day, yeah... that same exact day where this guy was rejected by Ismael. I say this guy because I don't remember his name and believe you don't have to remember it either cause the film doesn't show anything important about this guy other than he is love with Ismael. Like for real, he has zero personality. Ok, so at the end and after battling with his sexuality for just one day, Ismael ends up singing a song with the random guy that apparently should be a sign of closure enough to make us believe that he has finally gotten over his dead girlfriend and that he is happily gay now. At the end, I still have the sensation that Ismael is only with him out of pity or because he really needed a rebound, which should make me feel bad about the random guy but again his only goal in the movie was being with Ismael, like literally we see that he goes to college and all of that but we don't even know what is his career, his only purpose in the film is being in love with Ismael and chasing him around everywhere, which was pretty creepy but he kept doing it and it wasn't romantic at all, it was just kind of rude. But well anyway, the soundtrack is pretty dope though Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member The songs are mostly nice (when the lyrics are not so irritatingly pretentious), but the film seems to wander around without a clear sense of purpose, conviction and focus, while also being way too bleak and downbeat for its own good with its blueish, monotonous visuals. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Veers from romantic to sad to morbid, but still beautiful and obviously a tribute to Demy. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie captures the essence of Paris with a so realistic grey photography of the winter season, a convicing cast, a surprising story and love songs.
