I do think this movie deserves greater acclaim than reviews here indicate. The photography and feel is wonderfully graceful. It's a slow-paced film, about 90% is in black and white, and the music contributes very well to its ambiance. I think if you approach it simply planning to revel in this world of a female photographer in New York City taken by a female model, you will certainly be satisfied. The movie starts out in the photographer's point of view, but as it progresses, this point of view is sometimes shifted to the model's. The color segments are a bit confusing as far as when they occur in the story line. I would recommend just going with it anyway. Inspiring work.
This is a wonderful and very well-made movie of a high school girl and her life. I'm surprised no one has yet to review it, and that it is showing up here as only 5.5. Definitely worth a watch. This movie will not insult your intelligence, and may open your eyes to what could actually be happening in many girls' lives in similar scenarios. The movie is based in Ecuador and is subtitled, but the messages and themes here are universal, the cinematography and acting top-notch. I am also seeing no reviews at all of this movie on Rotten Tomatoes. I am very much at a loss at understanding such a thing. Chill out, have a smoke, relax, and watch this beautiful work.
This is such a beautiful movie. I loved everything about it. The ending was just right. The acting, the cinematography, the writing, all very inspirational and so pleasing to take in. There is something to be said for thoughtful conversation and genuine feeling, and I can see the correlation to the movies of Eric Rohmer and "Paris, Texas" as Suzanne said in an interview. Incredible work from such a young and talented source. Please give us more. My favorite scene is probably the short one in the cafe involving a kiss on the neck and the holding of hands. No dialogue. None was needed. Thank you.
