BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR (2013, FRANCE)

FILMS FROM THE 21st CENTURY
(Post 11 of 50)

Some quick takes on the most relatively recent listings from the
1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die list


While I was watching Blue is the Warmest Color, someone called me and ask me what I was doing. I said "I'm watching underage lesbian French porn...and what are you doing?" I know that's unfair, because this is really a pretty good coming of age film, where we do get to know and care about the main character of Adele and her artist friend girl-friend Emma. The NC-17 rating is for the sex scenes that are graphic and much longer in length than I can imagine them ever being presented in an American film.
