Review of Puccini for Beginners (2006) by Private U — 16 Oct 2008
Lame, lame, lame! This movie aims at being transgressive but winds up being some silly little rom-com which reinforces all the cliched stereotypes about men, women, gay people, and straight people. The main characters states "I'm a lesbian!" about a bajillion times during the course of the film--who exactly is she trying to convince? The audience or herself? Oh, and annoyingly, throughout all the endless talk about homo vs.
heterosexuality, bisexuality is mentioned once...in passing. Lame.
