Review of Blue Is the Warmest Color (2013) by Héliø L — 16 Feb 2014

MIA at the Academy Awards because it failed to qualify due to its distribution date, I would not trade Blue Is the Warmest Colour for any of the films that are actually in the race. 3 hours of the best close ups cinema can produce with performances so faultless they'd put Meryl Streep to shame (Not that I think Streep would have ever been involved considering all the graphic sex).

Perhaps the most explicit first love tale to have ever graced mainstream silver screens and one that is not going to be easily forgotten, much like your first heartbreak. It certainly won't be everyone's cup of tea either but I loved it so much I might even give oysters a go.
