Review of Beginners (2011) by Paul O — 30 Jul 2012
A totally different approach to a contemporary comedy that actually works out perfectly fine. In its own hilarious and witty way, Beginners deals with the heart-related problems of one father and his son.
While it's touching at times, it shows the great warmth and utter confusion of a devastated man, who just lost his father and looks for true love. And it's even harder for him, as one of the last acts of his recently deceased papa was to declare to the whole world that, at the age of 75, he can finally admit that he is gay.
Beautiful take on the modern romance and the power of love that's able to overcome any obstacles. Great performances by Ewan McGregor and Christopher Plummer are the main quality of the movie.
