A new star is born. Campanella offers in El mismo amor la misma lluvia an artwork full of sensitivity and love. Most american directors should learn from Campanella the characters he makes, real and tender and the script. Nothing to see with the big american productions, Campanella gives a lesson of how to make a love story interesting and absolutely unartificial. Very good!!! (8 out of 10).

Jorge is a famous Argentinian writer, but famous means that he is know but has no money, so has to live by writing short love stories in a magazine for young people. One day he knows one women and they fall in love, but life is hard and during 20 years, we can see how they manage to survive in the difficult days they spend in Argentina. A precious acting, really, really good of all the actors, specially Ricardo Darín, one of the best actors I've seen. The story is very touching and it quickly catch you, unfortunately, it has a low rhythm, so, sometimes, can result a little boring, as things happen so slowly... Despite that, this is a good film, recommended for those who want to see great actors in scene.

If you enjoyed "El hijo de la Novia" ("Son of the Bride"), you must go for this one. The same rock solid characters with a better script. A story you can believe in, a group of characters you laugh and suffer with.

I first was interested in this film after seeing "El secreto de sus ojos" (which I loved) because it had the same director and leading characters and told a seemingly similar tale of a difficult love story and the protagonists' struggle with internal conflict surrounding his own ambition and inhibitions and his struggle with an overbearing government that often leads him to find himself crippled in his work. I didn't find this movie quite as intriguingly complicated and intricate as "El secreto de sus ojos," but still found the movie compelling and impressive.

Jorge is a struggling writer in Argentina who falls quickly for the young and beautiful waitress, Laura. The pattern of an on-and-off-again relationship begins with a smitten Jorge and unavailable Laura. The climax of their relationship occurs when Laura and Jorge are finally together and Laura attempts to spark Jorge's ambition and pushes him to write with more significant substance with a meaningful and powerful book. It is really sad how Laura repeatedly becomes the victim of male inadequacies and weaknesses causing her hurt and heartbreak--one of many controversial and compelling themes that Campanella plays with in this film. I would definitely recommend the movie, and am very interested in his following movies "El hijo de la novia" and "Luna de Avellaneda"

I don't know if somebody noticed it before, but, El mismo amor, la misma lluvia, is almost a remake of a Brazilian film, from the sixties, called "Todas as mulheres do mundo"(All the Women in the World) by Domingos Oliveira (1966). A comedy that perpetuates the talent and charm of Leila Diniz, who died prematurely in a plane crash.

The plot is similar to the Argentinian movie: Paulo is a famous flirt known for picking up beautiful women on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro. This professional seducer finds true love when he meets Maria Alice, a young teacher. From then on, he confronts the dilemma of whether to give up "all the women of the world" to live with only one. The film deals with the conflict between old and new social roles women in the '60s had to choose between, and is based on the true story of the director's relationship with the leading lady. The film had a strong impact on contemporary Brazilian film, and is the most well-known role played by legendary beauty Leila Diniz

This movie has everything and its a real treasure to find it.
