As a "first" entry I'm going to discuss the las movie I saw, hoping this can become something regular.
Les Chansons d'Amour(2007)
don't really know how I came across this movie because this kind of cinema does not get the deployment they deserve in my country, becoming some kind of underground art cinema.First of all, this movie is a musical, The story goes around Ismael, Julie and Jean, a threesome in Paris that is trying to figure out their relationship.
Apparently Jean wants to have a normal relationship with Ismael and wants to leave the threesome , but as soon as something starts to be clear between them she dies, leaving Ismael sad and confused. The relationship between Ismael and Jean weakens, and they become something more like friends. Later on Isamel meets Erwann, the guy that's going to introduce him to a homosexual relationship that's going to change the way he perceives life, love and explores his bisexuality.
This movie is a must see , the soundtrack is as profound as the movie and it left me thinking about a bunch of stuff that are happening in my life (but that's just me).
Les Chansons d'Amour satisfied The French cinema hype that has been controlling my entertainment these days and is totally recommendable.
