Parece Amor

A movie about a 14 year old girl who decides she wants a boyfriend, because her best friend always seems happy with hers, and pursues an older guy. We follow her throughout the film, and watch her thought pattern, decision making, and emotions.

I...am not sure on this one. I watched it about a week ago at Sundance 13 and every time I think about it, I can't decide if I liked it. The production of the movie felt fine. It didn't feel poorly made, and the actors all played their characters pretty well, however, the main character didn't seem to ever show emotions. The movie definitely stirred up some weird feelings inside of me, and wasn't all that comfortable to sit through at parts.

All in all, I'd probably not suggest it.

A heart-breaking coming of age story of a teenage girl. You see around through her lenses and can't help but remember what a daily struggle to become an individual in a wide world full of coyotes and predators.

The director wants us to see Laia's yearning; yearning to be seen, to be heard and to be felt and mostly yearning to feel things she never felt before. A sense of lingering is all around.

Like the Sting says "I just wanna feel real love, feel the home that I live in, 'cause I got too much love running through my veins, going to waste." Laia just wanna feel too in a not-so-suitable environment.

If you wanna walk into some teenagers' world today, here's your pick!

This is a masterpiece reminded me of the great Federico Fellini, everything about it was masterful. The scenes were taken to the right ending whereas most go just a bit too far , but this is a work of art. The acting was superb as well as the writing which is far more critical to get. This work demonstrates like no other what many young people are faced with coming of age and the fear and unknown but also the compelling need to know . I look forward to more from this director writer She has a gift the world needs for its advancement if this movie is any indication

From the controlled, nuanced storytelling to the inventive camera work, Eliza Hittman's 'It Felt Like Love' is a quiet stunner, and a thoroughly confident first feature. It doesn't hurt that Hittman found an incredibly gifted and fearless performer in the young lead, Gina Piersanti.

The story unravels with a deep maturity and rawness, as we follow Lila (Piersanti) through the murky waters of sexuality and adolescence during a hot Brooklyn summer. 'Love' creates a fully realized portrait of a lost teenage girl discovering how wounding unrequited love can be. Seek this film out immediately!

This film started with a good plot premise and some decent atmosphere but soon deteriorated into a meandering mess of a film . Gina P. shows promise here but her skills in this movie aren't developed. While pretty and rather pathetic in her thoughts and actions, her flatline performance eventually wears thin. A lousy rap soundtrack and some very sloppy camera work drag this down to almost unwatchable status. At first it seemed like the entire movie was going to be about watching her best friend make out with a revolving door of boyfriends. Way too much of that and completely unnecessary to further the plot. She's a tramp-we get it! Continually swapping spit is kind of an overkill the average viewer could do without. There's scenes in here that just begin to develop but then just fizzle out and go nowhere and then we are at the next scene. Jumps around with very little coherence. The ending is absolutely dumb and pointless and resolves nothing at all. A big swing and a miss, but I will look for Gina P. in more roles. The rest of the cast in all frankness stunk up the screen. Not sure if the director has any future in this business but if pressed to hazard a guess she should brush up on her waitressing skills. Nothing of merit offered in this movie.
