"The truth about Jane" is one of those movies that, at least for me, can make you open your eyes and make a change in you. It has obviously some flaws, as a tv movie would, but its strenght goes far beyond. The spirit of this deeply touching movie gets you and changes you. A simple story (simplistic some would say) captures you and its innocence and sweetness are all you need to love it. A movie like no other i have ever seen, it's something different. I can only remember of the Once&Again episode "The gay-straight aliance" to compare it to. It's honest, it's sweet, it's touching and it will change the way you think about certain things. It's a hopefull story and the girl who plays Jane, Ellen Muth, has this unique talent and grace that marvells you. And it also has humour, as all things in life should have, even if just a bit. It's a wonderful fell-good movie with a heart and a soul. Watch it!

this is the kind of movie you imagine in your mind, sometimes for years, not knowing if it even exists: well, it does!!! I have to say i have a thing for weird, strange, offbeat movies and this one rates right up there alongside with The Company of Wolves and others as one of my favourites. The eerie, dreamlike, wonderful atmosphere with a great score; a haunting performance by Jennifer Connely and some great memorable scenes, make this one a true classic. Without any doubt. Go out and see it.

i have just seen it yesterday, so it's still fresh in my mind first thing:it's one of the best, if not the very best, portuguese movie i've ever seen. it's not perfect, far from that, but for the portuguese stadarts, i think, it's very good it's a rather simple story taking place in our modern society, in a big city, that makes us think about life, feelings, racism and love. the acting is good, the beginning is great, but the end , well, it was unexpected . a movie can't end like that! but real life can, and that's what this movie is about: life
