No one wants to take a good, hard look at the ugly parts of a romantic relationship. No one really wants to examine why a marriage ends, especially when you can’t put it into words. The blooming of a new union, however, is usually so full of colour, life and vividness, which makes “reality” often seem so dull in comparison.
Documenting this process from start to finish is this brilliant film starring Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling. Juxtaposing the vivid with the grey, the story is really about the emotional and physical transformation that occurs when a relationship becomes more of a burden than a blessing. The two actors are phenomenal in their roles and will leave you feeling absolutely shredded with their honesty.
Rating: 4 outta 5.
