Le tournant

Unexpectedly very sweet and gentle film, well written, acted and directed. Both actors and characters are very good and likable.

The script is also quite funny and sad at the same time. Not a masterpiece but a very enjoyable watch. Apart from a little tear at the end.

Sometimes you meet someone and you know this is it. Not romantically speaking (no pun intended), though it may seem so at certain points of the story. Especially when it feels like one of the parties is showing jealousy and the other may not be as .. grateful as the other one thinks is necessary.

Trying to be as vague as possible, because I do not want to reveal anything - it is my credo after all. So this story of two individuals who are different, but hit it off from the moment they meet, is well told. It may get a bit too hectic for its own good towards the end ... and live too much on chance ... but hey, it is fun to watch overall, that cannot be disputed.

This is a heartfelt story of bromance of the unlikeliest guys. It's a simple story but it has its tense moments. What I like about it is how the writer is able to capture the growing friendship of Jack and Ludovico in such uncommon circumstances. And as each peels off a bit of himself, I come to understand how this could be possible.

I wished the ending could have been different. I thought the viewer is being set up for a plot twist that did not happen. The plot is not condescending. What happened is so plausible.

Andrea Lattanzi and Brando Pacitto do a splendid job with their characters. Nothing is contrived or wooden. However, I wished the roles of Rebecca and Amanda were more meaty. But, as it is, the script doesn't give them that chance.

This film has the same vibes as the British film, "I Used to be Famous."

I did not know exactly what I was going to watch so.... I had no expectations.

Surprise, surprise!!! I liked it very much, different of all the movies I've watched lately, and that is A LOT !!! The two main characters are wonderful, human...after all. I recomend it from the bottom of my heart. We don't always have to watch a GREAT MOVIE, sometimes, simplicity is enough.... Give it a change....

The hidden mode of overcoming depression is taken in full effect. It often takes another person to get one off of meds and wake them up.

Nice style and substance, different than most flicks.

Enjoy.
