3 de Coeur

Lesbian lover tries to win back the girl she loves and it's a male prostitute that will help accomplish this ?!

This movie portrays love being universal in a way it can go from lesbian (in)to hetero and that, whatever you are, the feelings of love and despair are equal.

That is exactly why I liked this movie. Not because there was much to laugh about or the value of "reality" or "morality".

Those three words are the only way I can describe this movie. This movie was supposed to be about lesbians? where was the kissing etc? Kelly Lynch is fabulous in the Showtime series "The L Word" as Ivan so I expected to see her playing a believable lesbian. This was not the case with this character. The Baldwin brother had a look on his face the whole movie like he was half asleep. The script was predictable and anticlimactic. Soundtrack was okay (thanks Joe Jackson). If you have insomnia, watch this, you'll fall asleep. I tried to give this movie a chance, almost turned it off after 50 min, but I stuck it out hoping it would get better. It didn't. Don't waste your time on this flop.

Well, I saw this film one night by accident, but I was petrified, because the only humour part -which I consider very important for this sort of romance movies- was wholy put on Joe Pantoliano's shoulders; his character was really powerful, hilarious and a bit outrageous, componding a supporting role as well as the classic formers second actors in the past. In this movie, he looks like specially attractive and masculine. The female actress are average in their representation of a broken lesbian couple; I think William Baldwin is the worst actor here because it's not very believeable his carachter componding.

Alright, I gave this film no chance, watched it only because it was on and Joe Jackson did the score and knew I wouldn't even keep it on the whole time, but still... sometimes films I intend to dislike ("Signs" is one) turn out to be quite good. This one was not.

William Baldwin, Kelly Lynch and Sherilyn Fenn play three annoying city patrons whose lives intertwine in the fact that Kelly Lynch(the most irritating of them all), a lesbian, broke up with her girlfriend (Fenn) and wants her friend (Baldwin who appears totally bored) to pretend to love her ex so that somehow Ms. Fenn will come racing back to her. Or something like that.

Watching this movie is about as exciting as reading the phonebook. The lines are dull; I've already singled out Herr Baldwin, but all of the actors seem rather listless and lackluster; the lighting is annoying; and the score that I tuned into the dumb thing exclusively to hear is HARD to hear(but sounded good) because the sound quality was not too hot, either. Finally, I just gave up watching. What a waste it was.

Honestly you can watch this thing in fast forward and still understand the gist of the movie, because that's exactly what I did. I think all the actors did a decent job (I've seen Kelly Lynch in other things and she's great), but the plot was wretched and the characters were flimsy. Who acts like these people?

Here's a run down of the main characters: Connie: too over-the-top pathetic Ellen: Hot, but not interesting Joe: WTF!! The moral transformation- "bad boy turned good" was phony.

Actually the only great character was played by Joe Pantoliano. Maybe the movie should have been about him and not these confused and hard-up people.
