Below Her Mouth

This piece of LGBT cinema was flawed from the outset for a number of reasons and that is a damn shame.

Telling the story of an engaged girl who finds herself in a sexual relationship with a girl and the effect it has on her life.

Here is the main issue, a movie is doomed to failure if you don't like the protagonist(s). And how am I supposed to like or care about this girl when the entire movie is about her cheating on her partner? She may very well be having a sexual "Awakening" but that doesn't take anything away from her actions. The movie doesn't even present the fiancé as a bad guy either which they often do to soften the blow.

Highly explicit very graphic (And certain sexual acts are clearly real) this highly charged tale of seduction, sexuality and betrayal is a simple one but quite powerful regardless.

I being the loyal pup I am simply cannot get over that one major plot flaw though and that's why to me this piece of cinema fails and fails hard despite being a well made film.

The Good:

Very well shot

The Bad:

Just can't get behind an unfaithful protagonist

it's a classic story, i like romance. Very hot sex scenes, but behind that it remains the eternal question, who am i ? do i live the way i wan't, or i'am just following my parent's hopes. Not a masterpiece, but i really love this movie. the actresses are beautiful and play honestly.

Erotic, sexy and and a lot of nudity. Almost all female cast and crew did a good job, but, the film not something to remember. I have seen people comparing with Blue is the Warmest Color, but, they somehow forgot Bound (1996). But, couldn't reach up to the standards of these films.

I have read a lot of the reviews, and although I agree, somewhat, I still liked this movie very much. In my opinion, the acting was raw, but it fit the storyline perfectly. Erika was making her first movie, so she wasn't Meryl Streep, but that was what I liked so much. It felt like you were watching the real deal. Sometimes nervous, sometimes imperfect, a little awkward, not always saying the right things in the "perfect tone". But, the chemistry and the emotion all seemed so believable and real. Both actresses conveyed their emotions wonderfully. I was completely mesmerized by how well they were together. Yes, the sex scenes were explicit, but they were not just thrown in there to sell the movie. The scenes were realistic, emotional, and necessary to show the incredible connection they were building. No spoilers...the only complaint I have is the same as others...the ending could have been explored a little more. I would watch a sequel to find out more!

I would highly recommend this movie. The bonus is you get to watch Erika Linder, who is absolutely beautiful.

I thought the intimate scenes were very realistic and the chemistry was undeniable. Story was good too. The acting was difficult to take but it is compensated with everything else.
