Tout n'est pas rose

Bravo. Meaningful, heartwarming, real, hopeful, perseverance and full of love. We need more of such nurturing stories to embrace what true humanity is all about. Enough said. Gracias!

PS: Death to Putin death to bullies!

Spoiler: It made me cry (in a good way). A lovely movie with an important message about love and acceptance.

It was well acted and some of the scenery was spectacular.

I didn't really plan to see the film. A group of friends asked me to go and I agreed, so my expectations were really low. The movie ended up surprising me.

Azul y no tan Rosa might be one of the best Venezuelan films ever made. The story may be a bit too melodramatic, but it says a lot about tolerance and family relationships. The acting, even though not great, is decent. There are laughs, tender moments, sad moments and the movie is really nice to look at because of the locations.

I recommend this movie to anyone who thinks Venezuelan cinema is trash (which is not). It won the Goya Award for best Ibero-American Film, which represented a big win for Venezuela too.

When i started to watch this movie, it captured my attention since the first minute. Is one of those films I enjoy from the beginning and the more I watch the more I am interested to every scene not because of its simplicity but also well directed and very objective and clear in every form of expression. It blew me away and I felt it authentic, realistic and i did not skip any scene because all of them were full of drama, comedy, romanticism, passion, surrender, love, compassion and originality! Miguel Ferrari brought in me so many reasons to believe in love not as a part of a separate individual but as a whole in a society where hate is still there specially in Latin America society where the macho stereotype is still visible and prejudices are the instruments to make it continue in this world. I also loved the relationship between a gay father and his teenage son where the different events of life in this drama made their relationship stronger found by love, understanding and trust. I really enjoyed this movie a lot!

The director managed to use the camera to capture a true picture of the current venezuelan society discrimination to minorities, not exclusively sexual.

Being a movie that depicts the medium class in the venezuelan country, also imprints the idiosyncratic attitude: excess, lack of responsibility, the need for a better future and the absence of opportunities in the country, the violence and the impotence against the injustice, the love and the prejudice, the blood ties that grows stronger no matter the distances.

It's a film that has both a marvelous artistic touch and a protest underlying in the plot, that thickens as unravel while the movie goes on. By the end of the film, you'll find yourself attached to the characters stories: feeling them as your friends, suffering their tragedy and rejoicing in their destiny.

Elegant, made with care to the detail and inspiring.
