Vénus et Fleur (2004)
A unique experience
I feel so lucky today to watch this movie. Fleur is the type of character I've been longing to see on screen.
Moreover, I could luckily enjoy such character in a really beautiful film. The two female protagonists are fairly well-built (although I honestly couldn't see any "character development" as other reviews have said), I love how the slow pace makes every scenes and events so vivid. This movie, somehow, offers such a very French tranquility vibe.
Besides, the biggest revelation for me in this movie is the character Fleur, I consider myself as Fleur and Fleur is also my dream. Therefore, in some ways, she seems so familiar yet so far-away. I'm so emotional right now. This movie aroused me so many feelings which I couldn't put into words. Hopefully, I can find my Fleur.
Gabi on the Roof in July (2010)
A potential ten out of ten ending up at eight.
This is the type of plot that I've always been looking for. Sadly, apart from that and a gorgeous female leading role, the remaining is simply full of disappointment. To commence with, the male protagonist is probably the worst part of this movie, I literally can't see any virtues in him so I can be able to feel sympathetic to this character, he's hot-tempered, petty, and frivolous, it's really disturbing following all his questionable decision throughout the movie. One thing leads to another, this gives rise to the fact that the passion & love of Madeline for him makes me feel like this is a fiction movie rather than a romance. Another really poor-built character is Gabi the sister of the male protagonist, she's merely a child trapped in an adult body as most of the characters ever appeared on the screen. All her stupid actions make no point at all, it doesn't contribute to the whole picture of the movie, and it's really ridiculous in a way a person could barely imagine. That's the just some of many thoughts of mine upon finishing this movie. Once again, as I have a really specific type of favorite film, I would rate it an eight so maybe all these things above don't really matter that much, it's just a shame that I can't enjoy my favorite type of plot with a more organized and logical writing.
