Leslie Zemeckis has once again entertained us with a compelling story of a woman who blazed a trail in entertainment. Mabel Stark entertained millions of people with her death defying acts inside the cages of wild animals and Leslie Zemeckis shows us the real story...the woman who loved the big cats and would rather die than lose them. Don't miss this!
Saw this film in LA and was surprised by it's simplicity and power. This is not a "gay movie". Yes, the focus of the story is on a gay man but we start to realize it's about his difficulty loving himself and hence others. We understand why and how life is increasingly challenging for him as he attempts (as a European in America) to manage his past and get healthier. Mainstream audiences may be reluctant to pay to see a film about a gay man but star/writer/director Philipp Karner handles the sex scenes and sexuality in a restrained manner which affords all of us an understanding of the gay culture without offending. As a straight man, I really enjoyed the movie. I highly recommend LIKE YOU MEAN IT...for its wonderful, economical writing, direction and performances as well as its ability to enlighten and entertain!
