About this movie

At 15, Adele (Adèle Exarchopoulos) doesn't question it: a girl goes out with boys. Her life is turned upside down the night she meets Emma (Léa Seydoux), a young woman with blue hair, who will allow her to discover desire, to assert herself as a woman and as an adult. In front of others, Adele grows, seeks herself, loses herself, finds herself...

the most pointless movie I have ever mistakenly watched after reading good reviews about it. There is nothing going on in this film; from the decrepid and pointless, going nowhere and unoriginal story line to the mixed up message of this movie that seems to be more about film makers playing out their own fantasies of what lesbian couples do. Absolutely pointless and not even worth the 1.99! Don't buy into the decent reviews on this one, it really is low IQ viewing, meaning no thinking or contemplating or message needed..

This film was interesting for me with being my first time watching through a drama, especially in a different language to my own, furthermore I found that it definitely involved you as a viewer and allowed you to empathise with the characters presented to you. I can't say I found myself lost or bored at any points, it was a good watch. I recommend it to you.

This film is startlingly good from the beginning. It is basically a love story but done using a highly realistic technique such that we could be watching a home movie, really. That the love story is between young women is of no consequence apart from affording the (rather overly extending) sex scenes more titillating newspaper headlines perhaps. The protagonists wore no make-up (the set did not employ a make-up artist) which made them more watchable - particularly Adèle Exarchopoulos, for me, as her character required more 'feminine' emotion whose subtleties she pulled off to a breathtaking degree.
