Breaking Upwards: Not Bad at all
Apparently this is pretty much a chapter taken from the actor's lives. they even kept their real names. They are film students from NYU and they wrote a script about a year in their relationship that they tried dating other people because things were getting boring in theirs. This might have made the acting easier since it was pretty much themselves they were playing but I still think that they played them well and the script was quirky and real. Half way through, I was sure the girl was just crazy and that they were bad for each other. I'm still thinking that might be the case...but some guys like controlling women. I guess this one does:)
Beautiful Girls: A Story about Men
Good flick. I am not a man, but I believe that the characters were relatable and the dialogue was true to life. One guy tells his friend, "We're all looking for something beautiful". I think thats great. It is rare that even women admit this, let alone men. The idea of a beautiful relationship with someone is like the pie in the sky. We all want it and end up settling for physical beauty since that is usually easier and more accessible. When you find a beautiful relationship that goes deeper than this, you might sound like Uma Thurman's character: All I want is a man that can say "Good Night sweet girl". Someone who shows they love you everyday. That is real beauty.
