La amante de mi padre

As a devoted Simon & Garfunkel fan, 'The Only Living Boy In New York' immediately piqued my interest, and it doesn't disappoint in its exploration of themes reminiscent of 'The Graduate.' Much like the classic film, it skillfully navigates the complex terrain of love, generational conflict, and infidelity. While there may not be as many Simon & Garfunkel songs in the soundtrack, the inclusion of their cover of Jackson C. Frank's 'Blues Run The Game' set the scene for a pleasant 90 minutes of viewing.

Callum Turner, Kate Beckinsale, Pierce Brosnan, and Jeff Bridges deliver outstanding performances in a movie with a strong script and well-developed characters.

The relationship between the young man Thomas, and his father's mistress, Johanna, is intriguing and adds a layer of complexity to the story.

This film can be aptly described as a black comedy, where humor is subtle and not in-your-face. It doesn't rely on laugh-out-loud lines but rather on its warmhearted and amusing portrayal of its characters and their predicaments. It captures the essence of New York City's charm and chaos, much like the iconic duo's music did in their time.

'The Only Living Boy In New York' is a heartfelt exploration of love, betrayal, and self-discovery set against the stunning backdrop of New York City. With subtle humor, compelling performances, and an intriguing storyline, this character-driven film well worth viewing for those who appreciate a well told humous tale.

GREAT movie. Admittedly it starts just a little slow but is still very interesting to watch. It then picks up and only gets more and more interesting. It's very poetic and even days after you've watched, it stays with you. It is not for the closed minded or for people who only like fast moving action or typical romance movies. It has different outcomes than you'd expect and every bit along the way is very genuine and very well acted by everyone in it! It is very real life and warm while also heart-breaking and lovely. It is full of depth in each and every single character! I watch this over a weel ago and it just keeps popping into my thoughts. Highly recommend it!

This movie has some shades of a Woody Allen film in its character studies of people and in capturing the atmosphere of Manhattan. It examines family and sexual relationships between a husband and wife as well as extramarital love and sex. It looks at a young man's struggle with his sexual and romantic feelings. This is a psychological drama that highlights guilt, jealousy and even an important aspect of the oedipal complex. It is complicated and heavy stuff and it all flows from the pen of screenwriter Allen Loeb, who had written several successful movies before this earlier script ultimately came to fruition. This didn't happen until Marc Webb became attached to it as director and a terrific ensemble cast was put together which includes Jeff Bridges, Pierce Brosnan, Cynthia Nixon, Kiersey Clemons and Kate Beckinsale. However, the character who ties the plot together is relative newcomer, Callum Turner, who plays Thomas, the 25-year-old son who ultimately makes deep seated discoveries about himself and each of his parents before he can move on with his life.

This is the type of movie that will capture your attention and make you ponder each character's motivation. The story has depth, poignancy and surprises which will grab hold you and won't let go throughout the film. It certainly kept us thinking and talking as we left the theater.

I wish there would be more of those movies. Right from the get go you feel a certain tone a certain mood that is different from your patterned "Hollywood" flick. This movie does what good movies do it focuses on story and characters and both are tremendous. I have never seen Callum Turner in anything but he does a pretty good job as our main character torn between doing the right thing and doing what he feels. Kate Beckinsale with her very monotone and lifeless line deliveries is still cast well because she is mainly there to be the attractive and seductive one and she is very good at that. Brosnan who I like to see but never surpasses a certain level has one of his best performances of his career. But they are all outshined by Jeff Bridges which is no knock on them. Bridges in one of those actors that like a good wine get's better and better which each year he ages. The story is the second big star. Starting of very slow but building up until all the dots are connected and all the themes that were established come full circle. So if you are looking for a movie that is outside of the box that feels like something that you have not seen a hundred times give that one a try.

I really loved watching this movie that is a combination of superb direction, nice storyline, and excellent piece of acting by all the actors. A must watch drama with a certain element of truth in it.
