Review of Blue Is the Warmest Color (2013) by Belle M — 14 Dec 2013

I was really excited about this movie. It's been one of those that I was the most excited, and I finally got to do it. And it was just a beautiful piece of cinema. And even though it wasn't as I thought it would be, it still manage to kept my attention throughout and to get involve in Adèle's life.

The acting was excellent, it had many ups and downs and a lot of emotion. I can only imagine how hard and dark it had to be for the actresses. Adèle Exarchopoulos was just perfect in the role of Adèle, and just how she managed to play her and be her in every possible way.

It's one of those performances that feel so natural and raw. While LÃ (C)a Seydoux, who was more intriguing and daring was excellent too, mostly in the break-up scene were you can see all that rawness and mixture of emotions on her.

The direction was also very good, and also very natural. Because the acting and the characters are the ones that make you not look away and just concentrate on them all the time. And even though most of the scenes were longer than they would necessarily be, most of the time they felt very natural and necessary because of the type of story it was telling.

Because you want to get involve with these characters in every possible way, and spend every second of their life learning their experiences and tragedies. It's one of the most heart-warming and breaking movies I've seen this year, but also one of the best ones and possibly one that will become a favorite of mine.

I wouldn't mind watching it again, and get lost in the characters once more. And although it had some very intense love scenes, they were just an expression of the true love and rawness the characters were expressing.

Overall, excellent movie about love and life in the most passionate and natural ways.
