Manthast Absolutely amazing

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

paul2001sw-1 Frerick Fonteyne's 'Une Liason Pornagrahique' is a brief, but very French film, with a stylish female protagonist, and lots of talking about sex. We see the story of a couple's relationship; they also recount their own recollections of it, which interestingly, do not always agree, though the film itself never settles their differences. But it's an essential part of the relationship that both partners go into the affair with a deliberate reserve; and although that coolness melts over time, the viewer is never allowed to get close enough to really care about either one. It's not badly executed, but I never felt truly involved.

ccovert1 The beauty of this film shocked me, and I will always remember it.The entire situation pulled me in right away, and "she," "he," and the interviewer unraveled what turned out to be a love story. The sex between them was gorgeous, powerful, loving, and unapologetic. I love how the interviewer, no matter how he tried to siphon the details of the sex from the man and the woman, just could not ever get his "dirt," so to speak. They couldn't give him that, because it was not ABOUT that.This is a work of art, and I am grateful to have seen it, to have felt it. -Cindy

RhiannaDraikaina The story of a romance between two people - no names, no lives, only each other and the time they had together.It's beautiful. It's one of those movies that stabs at your heart every now and then. You know what you want to happen, but at the same time, you know it won't. I love Natalie Baye and Sergi Lopez. Both actors are incredible in their own rights and wonderful together. The characters that they helped create only further that. I love how there are no names, no phone numbers, no address. There's only each other and that room. As the viewer, we don't even get to see what happens in that room, except for the more normal scenes. At the end of the movie, I can't help but wonder... what happened in that room and I watch it over and over to find out what happens and I never do. If anyone does, let me know. I'm still dying to find out. At the end of the movie, anyone who's seen it, knows it ends with an unhappy ending, but I can't help but think it will end differently. I always watch it and wait, hoping for something I know won't happen. It makes it end all the more beautifully, despite the fact that I still think in my twisted little head that perhaps the 'behind the scenes' guys gave them their phone numbers and names and they ended up together. Of course, when I know that my version didn't go as planned, I feel a deep sorrow. It's like two of my best friends breaking up and ruining everyone's lives...Of course, everything makes it all the more beautiful.I also love the way that the movie is brought out. It's a fictional movie with fictional characters presented as a documentary.

mdefranc I trust anyone who's seen this didn't have to delve much into it to understand what Fonteyne's message is. Rather simple I would say, no need to dissect it, what you see is what it really is, as Magritte said about his paintings. The two characters portray the life of probably many of us in today's day and age, a disposable society where there seldomly is time for feelings to be discussed, even though we'd like to. Their "relationship" (I've been too generous I think..) is ironically carried on "routinely" probably like everything else they did on a daily basis, just like many of us do.As we now meet on the internet, they met through a magazine ad, just to dare one another I guess, challenging one another to see who'd give up first maybe. Fonteyne constantly keeps his lens on the two of them, leaving everything else out of sight, almost as if he were afraid of one of them fretting the situation and escaping. They don't even know each other's name; they just carry on, consuming their rapport behind the red of their hotel room walls, a deep, intense red, as deep and strong as the attraction for one another.No matter how prone each of them is at the end of the movie to declare their feelings, they will eventually fail in the attempt to chip the red off the wall and carry some of it along in their lives. A strong sense of regret underpins the end of this sad -yet realistic- story. What we see toward the epilogue is a manic attention to the few details around them from a lighting perspective: The red walls and the bed sheets as their love slowly dissipates.
