    It's an emotional rollercoaster to watch this. Oscillating between bleakness and hope, despair and re-affirmation. Great acting overall.
  • Très intéressant film. Le meilleur

    Love all of dolan's work! Needless to say, I wasn't disappointed when I saw his latest masterpiece, paired with such fine music. However, finding the 2 songs (on left iTunes trailer) is a sheer impossibility! I have looked everywhere & tried everything & cant find song titles or artists. Can anyone help? Does anyone out there know???

    Riveting, strong performances, and a fluctuating aspect ratio that expands and narrow twice in the film (it plays out in pillar-box for most of the film). I can’t believe this is this director’s fifth or sixth film already. He’s incredibly prolific.
