A Moment for Love

A Moment For Love is more than just a rom-com-it's an immersive, fairy-tale-like journey that blends fashion, fantasy, and deep emotional storytelling. Directed by Joseph and Phillip Matarrese, and co-written by the film's star, Bobby Love, this semi-autobiographical film is both visually striking and profoundly moving.

At its heart, the film follows Trevor (Adam Huss), a singer-songwriter burdened by a painful secret, who stumbles into the magical and flamboyant world of Bobby Love, an out-and-proud fashion designer. As their friendship grows, Trevor learns to release his past and embrace the love and acceptance that Bobby and his chosen family offer. Filmed against the stunning backdrops of Los Angeles and Venice during Carnivale, the film's aesthetic is as extravagant as its themes, featuring actual footage from Bobby Love's bold and avant-garde runway shows.

What makes A Moment For Love truly special is its unapologetic celebration of self-expression. The fashion in the film is breath-taking, with each piece serving as a testament to Bobby Love's artistry-think the grandeur of Mardi Gras meets the elegance of Venetian masquerades. But beyond the spectacle, the film carries an emotional weight, tackling themes of love, loss, self-discovery, and the power of chosen family.

Adam Huss delivers a layered and heartfelt performance, while Bobby Love shines as both an actor and creative force behind the film. Their chemistry is undeniable, making their journey of friendship and healing all the more compelling. The film's balance of humour, romance, and poignant moments ensures that it remains both entertaining and deeply resonant.

I met Bobby Love at the Labryinth Masquerade Ball, and I had always seen him in his amazing costumes at the Renaissance Faire! I finally had the courage to talk to him and he was very kind! He mentioned his movie and I decided to take a look at it.

You can tell how much passion went into this film and it was a joy watching. I loved the color choices for lighting as well as seeing even more of his intricate costumes! I was a bit jealous because I want to wear them too!

As an artist, the creative bits of editing and cinematic shots were every single emotion. Beautiful, dazzling, stunning, fun, and quirky!

I enjoyed the humor and added drama. I loved the overall message of being unapologetically yourself and learning how to find love within yourself. A fun movie to see, I had a great time watching! I hope to see more!

A magical celebration of love, identity and living life authentically. A great story with amazing locations, costumes and of course performances including Bobby Love and Adam Huss. Huss also displays his musical talents just as he did in Waiting in the Wings a few years back.

This is a wonderful journey and a celebration of the different kinds of love and friendship that are possible in life.

The music adds another enhancement and supports the mood of this film with it's dramatic and comical ups and downs.

The visuals in this film alone are worth watching. The performances are another reason for watching. A delightful LGBTQ+ film.

As someone who grew up in the rural south, I don't have much background in high fashion, "Haute Couture." A Moment for Love gave me an insight into this world, the sometimes petty jealousies, the runway pressures, and the artistic friendships. Most of all, the friendships, which triumph over the jealousies. This movie must have been very fun to make. It is visually stunning, not only the wardrobe, but the locations, with a magically castle overlooking LA and locations that include Venice. Bobby is the anchor but the friends that surround him give the movie its heart. I particularly loved the woman who played the contortionist as she brought an infectious joy to ever scene.

"A Moment for Love" is a whimsical and heartfelt fairytale rom-com that blends music, fashion, and personal transformation into a dazzling cinematic experience. With Adam Huss delivering a touching performance as Trevor, the film explores themes of identity, healing, and found family, all set against the vibrant backdrop of Bobby Love's magical world. Featuring real footage from Bobby's legendary runway shows and filmed in breathtaking locations, this award-winning story is as visually stunning as it is emotionally resonant, earning a well-deserved 9/10. Definitely worth the watch if you're into LGBT+ cinema.
