Amante Fiel

Second movie as a director for Louis Garrell, and (as in Two Friends) he pays tribute to the cinema that made him the director (and actor) he is today. The only problem is (for me) the conclusion of his movies, always quickly solving the good intuition of the start. His love for love triangles and ironic ways to talk about love disasters is a signature, and I wish he will be able to end a movie the way he knows how to start them.

I love so much frenh movies, but this one is not good bored, too much short and nothing new, I do not know what is the iea with this movie, bad, very bad

The film is a french rom-com that sometimes hints at being some kind if neo-noir, but none of the build up is ever well payed. It has some interesting choices, but it's cinematography is dull. The characters have a lot of hateful characteristics but you end up kind of understanding their point of view, maybe even liking them a little bit. There are a lot of questions made by the film thatyou could argue at never getting an answer. It's not bad, it's not great, it's okay, you can whatch it if you really like french movies

... Louis Garrel has to be one of luckiest men in the world... constantly working with some of the most gorgeous women in films (here with his wife Laetitia Casta), and being paid handsomely for doing so

... this an interesting little movie raising a few questions that never get answered... to ask them now would give away too much of the storyline, and you need not knowing where this is all going to make watching anyway worthwhile

... overall the production was okay... the ending being the greatest disappointment, and final unanswered question... French films notably do this alot... as in most other Western countries, the divorce rate in France has risen in the last decade, where now more than half of all marriages end in divorce... seeing this film it's understandable why.

When I started watching this movie my first impression was 'oh, another pain & angst love story'. But after !5 minutes into the film I was hooked and had to see it to the ending.

There is a sudden and unexpected statement from one of the main characters that captured my attention at about the 15 minute mark and I was hooked on what was going to happen to Abel, Marianne, Eve, and Joseph!

This movie will leave you guessing and wanting more at the end. Louis Garrel did a superb writing/directing/acting job here and kudos to him!
