Review of Gloria (2013) by Heather M — 09 Jul 2014
A wonderful film from Chile, about Gloria, a middle-aged divorced woman, who combats loneliness by frequenting social dance clubs, where she meets Rodolpho, an older man who divorced a year ago, but who hasn't truly adjusted to his new life as a single man.
The ups and downs of their romance, as well as their relationships with their adult children, make this film a quiet, nuanced study in love and inner strength. It has a wonderful ending with her dancing at a friend's wedding to the 80s disco tune "Gloria" -- an irresistible affirmation of her upbeat, hopeful attitude.
