The Invisibles

This movie was surprisingly fresh and something I am glad I had the opportunity of viewing. It was funny, serious and such a sweet love story. It's a black and white artsy type film, but don't let that fool you, this movie is good, really good. The acting was great and the lines were delivered perfectly. I smiled and laughed so much. I cried too. I really love this movie and I am glad I spent the money to buy it. I thought that the story line (plot) was really fun and well thought out. If you like black and white artsy movies then do yourself a favor and pick this one up. My face still hurts from laughing. The movie was nothing like I assumed it would be from what people wrote on here.

I don't know any models or rock stars, or even junkies, but I know people who have to wrestle with the very issues that haunt both Jude and Joy, and it's that familiarity that makes this little film, to me anyway, more believable than its slightly-too-smartassed dialogue would ordinarily allow. Every stereotype you've ever heard about the runway or the stage gets aired, but the script uses them as guideposts rather than as plot points, which makes the task of getting to know these not-so-charismatic characters easier. The relationship between the two is tentative and brittle, and the B&W cinematography adds just enough grain to make that brittleness stand out. A couple of things don't quite ring true - Portia de Rossi's eyebrows come across like Groucho's greasepaint mustache on a bender, and the loft where 98 percent of the film takes place never seems particularly Parisian - but in the easily-reviled realm of Rich Kids Suddenly Forced To Grow Up films, this is one of the few I've found worth remembering.

This movie was so awesome. Noah Stern is a great director. Portia de Rossi and Michael Goorjian were wonderful. The movie shows human nature like it really is - how you would go from casually talking about one topic to delving into your past and end up crying about it. It's very funny at one moment and quite touching the next. I absolutely loved it.

Portia de Rossi reveals herself as not just beautiful, with those long blonde tresses- but beautiful-happy as a entrancing flaky model in this Paris apartment-bound clever relationship movie between her and a heroin addicted famous musician, and a noble pizza guy who takes ivory chess pieces as payment. I haven't seen that much from her, besides Ally McBeal and Arrested Development, where she never has enough time, but she really shows the radiant shine behind in her smile in between tearful admissions and hot monkey love. Michael Goorjian is no slouch as the smart talky rock star hiding from fame in an apartment without food, money, or drink. This is a fun and cute movie, despite the drugs, with lively and witty banter of jet setters who are actually real and interesting people.

Only thing, I hated the black and white, because I wanted to see the lush colors in lush Portia.
