  • I am really looking forward to seeing this film. My daughter, Marley Marius interviewed Zendaya for her 2 Vogue cover stories so I feel like I know her and I have been a Mike Feist fan since seeing him in Dear Evan Hansen and WSS. It is great to see that the film is so well received.

  • I’m lowkey obsessed with this film & this is the single most intelligent, insightful & balanced review I’ve seen. I too thought it lacked “heart” on 1st viewing, but on repeated viewing, when I could look past the at-times implausible plot & slick stylistic choices, the performances revealed a deeply moving emotional depth & subtlety. I agree the script isn’t centred on the ‘why’, but the actors are so good they almost supply the why themselves. Tashi’s steeliness can be explained by how hard she had to fight for success given that she’s not from the privileged background many tennis players (including the guys) come from & she’s obviously a woman of colour as well (she mentions the racism of her opponent). Patrick notes she’s not just pursuing her ambition for herself but also for her family & to make a larger social impact too, so when her dream is crushed, I think this - combined with her background - is enough to explain the hardening of her character. As for Patrick & Art, they both went to tennis boarding school, have remote parents, & they also have unresolved issues with their sexuality (it’d be 1 explanation of why Patrick doesn’t seek support from his rich parents).

  • I think the elements are there for awards. I think the biggest thing that will stop it from getting any is the April release date. In order to be a contender, it would have to have some buzz and be able to hold onto that buzz all the way into the fall when people actually start thinking about awards. Certainly we've had films that came out early in the year and managed to do that.... it's just a question of whether or not this is going to be one of those films.

  • I guess I need to watch it again as I seem to be missing something. I just don't believe the premise, and I don't feel any chemistry. The score was great. I appreciate the technical aspects. I am very offended and confused with the use of John Rutter's A New Year Carol in that scene. I love Lucas's films, and I am scratching my head why it's not connecting with me. 5 out of 10 for me.

    • I’m a huge fan of ‘I am Love’ & definitely agree with you on the implausibility of the premise (& large swathes of the plot). And on the surface, at least, this is a highly atypical Luca film bc of its commercial, poppy sensibility & all-American athletic setting But on repeated viewing, I appreciate the performances more & more. IMO the chemistry between the leads is electric & also, at times, deeply moving.

  • I definitely think the movies score is definitely its best shot at Oscar’s since that’s definitely the most raved apart of the film and maybe screenplay. However, noms for Picture, Director, and Lead Actress I just don’t see it. It only feels that way because of how early it is in the year.

  • I want to see this movie because critics are saying Zendaya shows she has range as an actress and I've yet to see that in her previous roles. To me she's always been one note: dour. I am excited for the brilliant Josh O'Connor and Mike Faist (who should've been nominated if not won the Oscar for West Side Story). And of the movies I've seen by the director, they've been good but one-time watches. So I'm intrigued but might wait for streaming.

  • Most people unless they are musicians or Hindus who chant mantras, do not realize the power of sounds. Mantras are pure sounds signified by Jupiter the planet that signify Gods. Even in Christianity God days Let There Be Light and there was light. That is a mantra. Singers come under the Moon. There is a theory in Vedic Astrology that if the Moon is placed in a certain way in the 9th divisional chart (the dharmic or Sun energy of dharma) the person dies early. So a lot of singers if Shiva (the Sun) feels that the songs sung by the singer is not going to bring peace or fhaa to the world, the person dies early. See how important sound is. Actors by playing different roles with different dialogue power, has a median longevity as opposing forces cancel each other out.
