The Art of Love

A wonderful imaginative quirky film. This film has everything poignantly about loneliness in today's society, but also has romance and humour in abundance. An unusual friendship develops between two sex toy workers Eva (Alexandra Gilbreath) and Adam (Oliver Walker) who were both absolutely superb. The film cleverly takes you on a journey through several emotions, romance, sadness, humour and loneliness. I laughed out loud on several occasions and also shed a tear. It was also shot beautifully, and truly showed off Great Britain in all its glory! A wonderful watch I would wholeheartedly recommend to all, you will not be disappointed.

It is very rare to see a movie that can charm an audience without the extensive use of special effects, worn-out clichés and action set pieces these days.

I "discovered" this movie at the Zuerich Film festival ZFF. I got to see the movie on it's last showing, and all I can say is that it will not pain me one bit to pay to see this gem a second time.

Assembling the best and most unlikeliest of ensemble casts you may probably see for a long time, Great directing, beautiful camera work and when the more touching moments arrive, they don't seem forced but natural and honist, because these moments are truly earned. But WHAT a collection of characters this is. Alexandra Gilbreath absolutly stunning as Eva Parker I can't describe in words - you must see! Oliver Walker is perfect as tired influencer Adam Kowinski, searching for a real meaning in life. The crazy "Boss"; Kenneth Collard finds new shades of darkest despair and comedy as the man with the master plan; "Ted Lasso's" Jeremy Swift does amazing things with little more than facial expressions as Eva's Husband who's deep into potatoness, and many more perfictly casted supporting actors. A MUST see!

The Art of Love is the kind of film gives you all the classic romantic comedy feels with a modern take on the story. There are lots of laugh out loud moments with several twists and turns in the story that keep you at the edge of your seat until the end. Yet, it was an easy watch. The kind of movie you can put on with friends to please a crowd or for a date night.

Alexandra Gilbreath and Oliver Walker are incredibly charming and have great chemistry together. Jeremy Swift and Kenneth Collard both play hilarious supporting while Jasmine Blackborow needs only about five seconds of screen time for you to fall in love with her. It's light hearted, fun, funny, and entertaining from start to finish.

Highly recommend!!!

The film begins somewhat superficially and lovelessly. But the development that the protagonists then go through and the unexpected twists that the film makes, have touched me, made me laugh and fascinated me. The film is about loneliness, about the difficulty to show feelings and the courage to be oneself and to stand by oneself. All this is packed in a very funny story that tells about the development and testing of sex toys. The approach of the two main characters is enormously touching, the dialogues funny and yet very close to reality. It is a great pleasure to watch these two and what a transformation they go through. The film is absolutely great and the actors brilliant!

Imaginative, witty, quirky, full of humor, with quiet moments of touching power and truth. It's about loneliness, love, sex, the meaning of life and "likes". Highly topical and yet full of deep truth. A lovingly and lightly told story, full of whimsical ideas, with excellent actors and images that you will not soon forget.

This film is a stunner. Absolutely worth seeing!!
