France once! See more 12/07/2021 Ma Belle, My Beauty is a beautiful film portraying a nuanced and layered love story. The film centers the relationship between Bertie and Lane, two women who have loved and hurt each other, as they navigate their past and present. Unlike many films these days, this movie isn't trying to make a point or spell out a foregone conclusion, it's an authentic and real depiction of navigating identity, communication, and connection. Coupled with strong characters, a witty and thoughtful script, and an incredible soundtrack, you can't go wrong with this film. Set in a beautiful location in the South of France, the film is a sensory delight that transports you to a strong sense of place through the attention and care it gives to sights, smells, sounds - a deep and genuine love note to this particular region of France. See more 11/25/2021 Lovely insight of old passions never really disappeared that clashes with present choices and life directions. The movie is very tender, the delicacy of the dialogs communicate a sweet uncertainty in the protagonists feelings, an honesty very much appreciated, that makes a love story genuine and not banal. I believe it's a must watch, maybe a cult someday! See more 11/23/2021 I am so glad I decided to stream Ma Belle, My Beauty!! I had seen some of the great reviews popping up here and there. Bored at home one afternoon, I saw the Apple trailer and decided to settle in for cozy watch from my couch. My husband watched it with me and loved it. We paused the movie many times so we could discuss the storyline - we were so wrapped up in it! I lived in France and studied French literature for many years. This felt like a beautiful journey back to all the wonderful and challenging aspects of living abroad. There were so many beautiful layers of culture and understanding laid out in this film. National identity, gender identity, sexual identity, professional identity... nuances of love, responsibility, loyalty, creativity, citizenship... it all overlaps in a thoughtful way. I absolutely found myself caught up in the journey of these characters - loving them, hating them, and then loving them again. I am not surprised at all that it received fan favorite at Sundance. Absolutely recommend! See more 11/21/2021 Touching film. This is a personal film from the director and you can feel it. It's vulnerable, messy...it's love. See more Read all reviews
