Review of Gloria (2013) by Amy M — 21 Jun 2014
The movie has a light tone that touches on the matters of the heart in a very realistic and transparent way.
Both main actors portray their roles in a way that leaves the audience feeling exactly how they are supposed to be feeling. If they are content, you find yourself smiling, and when they are feeling sad or disappointed, you feel it as well.
The only thing I have to heavily criticize and the one thing that really made me feel uncomfortable during parts of the fim, is the unnecessary explicit sexual scenes. I don't think avoiding such details would have impacted the film or the message the director was trying to tell.
I believe the director was trying to give us the message that love is beautiful, no matter the age and that it's never too late to stop feeling passion. But this would've been understood just as well without the necessity of showing us so much skin and both actor's sexual parts.
