Jonathan Romney Screen International 09/08/2023
Such a film - essentially a two-hander - totally relies on the chemistry of its leads, and the gentle, tentative interplay between Canet and Rohrwacher gels beautifully. Go to Full Review

8/10
Director Stéphane Brizé manages to spectacularly intertwine the comedy and tragedy of past and present love to recreate for the audience the cruel beauty of nostalgia, heartbreaks and "what could have been"s that terrorize us all. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Laurian D @Laurian Apr 28 Worth a watch, but this story has been told before and at a much better pace. The acting is top notch but it's unnecessarily long and I almost suggest watching it at 1.25x speed, it would probably make for a more pleasant experience. See more Geraldine T Mar 23 This film is well made but for me, overall, tedious. Some scenes just go on too long and feel pointless in the overall scheme of the narrative. I felt quite bored as I ploughed my way to the conclusion See more Marco L @decatur555 Jan 27 (ENGLISH) This delicate cinematic romance serves as a mature reflection on love and second chances. With a slow-paced narrative and an elegant visual style, the film blends melancholy and restrained emotion, delivering a deeply intimate and moving experience. The chemistry between Alba Rohrwacher and Guillaume Canet is the heart of the story. Their performances, filled with subtlety and honesty, convey the emotional complexities of their characters without overacting. Their gestures and glances speak as much as their dialogue, creating a genuine connection that captivates the audience. Stéphane Brizé's direction, arguably among his best work, showcases great sensitivity in tackling universal themes such as the passage of time, life choices, and the impact of past relationships. The film unfolds at a measured pace that, while it may feel prolonged at times, aligns well with its contemplative and romantic tone. Visually, the film is captivating, with cinematography that enhances the elegance of each scene and complements the emotional weight of the story. The intelligent script avoids unnecessary twists, maintaining engagement through dialogues that balance humor and depth. In conclusion, Out of Season is a mature and reflective love story that moves without veering into sentimentality. It stands out as a remarkable work, proving that romantic stories can be as intense as they are understated, leaving a lasting impression on the viewer. (CASTELLANO) Este delicado romance cinematográfico se presenta como una reflexión madura sobre el amor y las segundas oportunidades. Con una narrativa pausada y un estilo visual elegante, la película combina melancolía y emoción contenida, ofreciendo una experiencia profundamente íntima y conmovedora. La química entre Alba Rohrwacher y Guillaume Canet es el corazón de la historia. Sus interpretaciones, cargadas de sutileza y honestidad, logran transmitir las complejidades emocionales de los personajes sin caer en excesos. Sus gestos y miradas dicen tanto como los diálogos, construyendo una conexión genuina que captura la atención del espectador. La dirección de Stéphane Brizé, probablemente en uno de sus mejores trabajos, demuestra una gran sensibilidad al manejar temas universales como el paso del tiempo, las elecciones de vida y el impacto de las relaciones pasadas. La película se desarrolla con un ritmo pausado que, aunque podría alargarse en algunos momentos, resulta coherente con su tono contemplativo y romántico. Visualmente, la propuesta es cautivadora, con una fotografía que acentúa la elegancia de cada escena y complementa la carga emocional del relato. A esto se suma un guion inteligente que, sin necesidad de grandes giros, logra mantener el interés con diálogos que combinan humor y profundidad. En definitiva, Fuera de temporada es un relato de amor maduro y reflexivo que emociona sin caer en la cursilería. Una obra sobresaliente que demuestra que las historias románticas pueden ser tan intensas como discretas, dejando una huella profunda en el espectador. See more Mariella B Jan 1 Out of Season is a small masterpiece whose strong point is the masterful acting of the two protagonists, both in a state of grace in the roles played. The melancholy of time that passes inexorably and closes the doors to "what perhaps would have been" is punctuated by the dry notes of a piano and the gusts of wind that sweep an inhospitable beach and smooth the sharp stones of a small cliff. Everything is in perfect balance in the stability of adulthood but the vital impetus of feelings is dead, imprisoned in the choice of what is best to do or buried by the fear of jeopardizing the consolidated routine. A wonderful film that I would watch again immediately. Vive la France! See more Dec 24 Exhaustingly drawn out example of privileged indulgence and justification of breaking trust See more Simon H 12/09/2024 A vapid, pretentious, meandering marathon of a movie with several cameo performances which were difficult to endure. It seemed to last much longer than its advertised running time of 1 hour and 46 minutes, time which we'll never get back. See more Read all reviews
