Personally of all the new films i have watched over the course of the festive season, not only dd this turn out to be the most unexpected but also, unexpectadly the best..so much so it should be up for awards during the upcoming 2017 movie awards season. I have had the film sitting on standby for a good few weeks now. Originally got hold of the film for the female members of my family, just sounded more like their cup of tea. As the well was running dry we decided to give 'Love is all you need' a look last night..and we were all hooked from start to finish. Based on a short story, Love is all you need, directed by Kim Rocco Shields tells of a world were being homosexual/Lesbian is the standard and being heterosexual is shunned, to the point of exclusion and even violence. The film follows many different characters but mainly centres on a popular uni student and a young teen girl, both of whom go against what s considered, the grain..and the resulting hardships they have to endure. We didnt move for the whole 2 hours. This film is nothing short of a directing, storytelling and acting masterclass. Think im right in saying that, with the exception of possibly 1 or 2 performers, the film casts a bunch of unknowns, all of whom deliver knockout performances. Impecably told, the film really draws you in..and any film thats capable of doing that deserves an award or 12 in my opinion. Definatly one of my top films of 2016..really didnt expect this to be so great. Highly recomended.
