Über diesen Film

Adèle (Adèle Exarchopoulos) is a young woman whose longings and ecstasies and losses are charted across a span of several years. Emma (Léa Seydoux) is the older woman who excites her desire and becomes the love of her life. An epic of emotional transformation that pulses with gestures, embraces, furtive exchanges, and arias of joy and devastation. It is a profoundly moving hymn to both love and life. © 2013 Alcatraz Films

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

Exploitative sex scenes fashioned from a male perspective... way too much snot and dangling saliva... but the acting from the two leads was WOW! Beyond all this, the subject matter is important and I appreciated this film a great deal.

As a lesbian, the film wasn't that bad. I actually ended up fast forwarding through the sex scenes, because up to a certain point it was kind of tasteless and boring. But beyond that the acting is supurb, and it's an honest, coming of age story that might connect to a younger generation. Five stars to the story line richness. Zero stars for the sex scenes (sorry not sorry, it was very mechanical and lacking in intimacy).

Superbly acted with an authenticity rarely seen. Probably the best romantic drama I've ever seen on film. Sadly, people only seem to remember this film for its gratuitous sex scenes. Sure, they were hot & steamy to watch, but ultimately distracted from what was a beautiful, bitter-sweet love story that will linger with you for days.
