PridePosterStudios My heart will never not drop through my stomach every time I see père drop bébé. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/24/24 Full Review Audience Member This was one of the best movies I've ever seen, amazing everything. You have to watch the movie, fantastic. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Been waiting for years to see Jean-Marc Vallee's ("Wild" "Dallas Buyer's Club" "Big Little Lies") breakthrough, and aside from feinting and soft-peddling the gay subplot, it turned out to be a beautifully drawn portrait of fathers, sons and brothers, and coming of age in the 70's and early 80's. Definitely worth it (and strangely, an appropriate Christmas movie). Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Eitan D Very well done movie about how difficult it was for boy to grow up in a conservative society Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/07/20 Full Review Audience Member This movie was awesome. Just sad it took me 14 years to find it. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review phil v Okay, bold statement but probably my favourite film of all time.
