#For anyone
who has ever asked “what do lesbians do?”. Schoolgirl who grows up to teach children finds her sexuality and
encounters its difficulties and pleasures. Shout out to a seemingly universal
pleasure: Lyke Li’s ‘I’ll Follow You’.
#The story
is empty, simply a voyeuristic ordeal about passion, relatonships and the beauty of white girls.
Men are alluded to but aren't treated with any validity or given any positive
influence. Acting is good from all but is never anything more than a ‘be
yourself‘ cakewalk.
#Sex scenes
are shot with a 1970s sensibility; you saw more genitalia in Baise-Moi,
Antichrist and Irreversible. To be fair, the whole film is very well shot,
using both documentary and meandering arthouse techniques with testing liberty.
Without the sex, the film would be worthless.
#A film that
could have 90% of its running time scrapped and be better, still giving the
same lesbianism is heaven message. Watch it if you're LGBT or want to masturbate
over softcore.

#Okay, I
liked this movie so much because I'm a wanker. JGL grows up fast out of masturbation
and a destructive porn addiction by having relationships with special women.
#Commendable
for so many reasons: from the detailed character that pads out the bare yet
worthwhile plot to the delicate and righteous treatment of the token black role
to the brilliantly honest and skillful writing and direction to the absolutely
optimal performances of every cast member.
#Brutal with
its expressions and messages, always bearable - somehow it is never annoying or
uninteresting despite the simplistic story arc and oddly complimentary
predictability.
#Don Jon is an odd and valuable specimen; A Rom-Com that serves both
sexes. See this,
two weeks after Limitless.
