One of the many topics Laura and I discuss is why are there so many single mothers I know/work with and those in unhappy relationships she works with?
We put in down to those rushing into relationships within doing the'groundwork' e.g. Doing on more and more dates, going on more and more holidays together (together not with others, at least to begin with), living together beforehand ; then when comfort sets in then consider taking things to the next step.
I certainly don't dispute how having children can shake things up and burst the bubble of this domestication.
I thought these things watching this well acted piece of drama as Tomas is a narcissistic, confused fool bringing others down within his orbit by being heterosexual one time then homosexual the other. I'm sure this does happen in most relationships but here he cheats on both partners to a nasty level of intolerance especially his cavalier attitude when he announces he's going to be a father.
Again, I'm sure this does happen in real life and I pity the poor child having a parent who is both as immature and confused as they will be at a early stage of development.
Ira Sach's is excellent with actors just as he was in the marvellously touching, underrated 'Love Is Strange( 2014). Both Alfred Molina and John Lithgow had chemistry and a history together here Ben Whitshaw and Franz Rogowski don't and the only way they're heading is the divorce courts- but that's the whole reason.
It's an interest concept for a brave and daring film ( the gay sex scene is certainly that!). Some would find it slow and talky and the characters unsympathetic but I found it rather sad, wistful and a cautionary tale for those looking for love in the wrong places.
