O - Sexuelles Verlangen

I really enjoyed the movie, as the girl said, it's kind of "Pretty Women" stuff, but much more realistic, more dramatic and thrilling. Also, Anna Borissowna Tschipowskaja who played Nina looks so much better than Julia Roberts did and is a better actress. The rating here should be much better. "About Love" as well as some other movies with lots of sex and nudity concerning marriages in troubled waters have been financed by the Russian Ministry of Culture, the head of the ministry is a woman.

Surprised to note that there is no any review on this title, probably the worst Russian movie i have seen so far. The title is very worng "ABOUT LOVE" whereas it is not about love at all or the movie makers do not know the meanings of LOVE. This movie is all bout love and wealth that how Russian culture has evolved love into sex and wealth and how women over there prefers wealth by having sex with any wealthy guys and can leave their boyfriends or husbands for sex and wealth. Its a quite serious movie with good acting but i do not see any meaningful plot.

I don't speak Russian so could not follow the movie but the cinematography (lighting, framing), sound and editing is better than almost any other movie... even top grossing films.

Especially the bowling alley, skiing, cars in traffic, people sitting around tables/bed, and the final one-cut scene. Masters in generating atmosphere.

Altho i do read russian i cannot follow it spoken at that speed

anyway found a sub in SPA I could follow well there is also one on opensubtitles in ENG but it is way off

it is tacky in parts and feels like a 1940s tale to Western eyes but it gets stronger as it develops. In many ways it is an ageless storyline. In the end you are left thinking it is a Girl-Power tale and a pretty good one too. Few actors. Petersburg looks stunning in that film throughout the season and one could add it as a significant player here .... philosophical and deep in the end ... so Russian .... main actress is ochin' krassivaya indeed.

First of all there's a lot of people going on about how "deep" and "psychological" this movie is, but in my opinion this is all absolute nonsense and completely ditches even the concept of personal responsibility, if this script was co-written by therapists then they're either scammers or have some kind of agenda to make it interesting, it has a very basic and overused plot, good acting, good music and as always some flimsy character justifications for their actions, it's not horrible but it's nothing special, I'd recommend it if you've got to kill an hour and have nothing else to watch. Thanks.
