Review of Blue Is the Warmest Color (2013) by Viet Phuong N — 17 Jan 2014
Have you ever felt cast out? Have you ever felt detached from anything you've acquainted to? Look at Adèle, and you will find that cast-out yourself in her eyes, from her lips, through her gestures.
This film is not about love, not about finding your identity, not about feminism or LGBT right. This film is only about the loneliness that one may encounter once in their life, when their innocent inner self clashes with the strange nature of the society - an environment which is not purely toxic but always contains dangerous germs that can hurt you through love, especially love.
This film contains plenty of nudes and sex scenes, yet, this is the coming-of-age film of this year, and of any year as a matter of fact (and indeed this film is rated only NC-12 in France! look at that, MPAA!) thanks to the fresh and magnificent Adèle Exarchopoulos.
