Love Is Blind

Usually no matter how funky, offbeat or weird a writer or director gets I understand what is happening. Not with this movie. It did not make a bit of sense to me.

The description of the movie mentioned selective perception. The film is way off from the definitions I found.

The characters are very strange...just not believable. Sometimes the idea of being different or offbeat just doesn't work. How do people get so lost in their work that they just can't see it?.....maybe...selective perception???

The plot is all over and the idea of she not seeing others didnt make much sense, neither we knew why she was "blind" nor was this blindness feasible. I am afraid this movie will leave you in the dark.

Slow and boring. Don't understand the 8.3 rating. Fast forwarded just to get through it and didn't lose the plot, what there is of it.

It is a very slow and weird movie. The concept is not something that is relatable. Some of the acting was good but that can't save a movie that very few people will find interesting. I really wanted to like this as I have enjoyed some of Aidan's other work. I completely understand why this took so long to come out and why it never made it to the theaters (at least in the USA).

We've been waiting a long time for this film to come to us. First it was called "Look Away"..in 2015. Then it was changed to Beautiful Darkness. We waited in anticipation for 3-4 years for this to move through post production, to find a distributor and to get a release date. We poured over unofficial trailers. And still most of the world outside the UK is waiting to see it....Personally, I was not disappointed. I was waiting up at midnight on the 25/3/19 in the UK to see it. The best of indie style film making with glorious cinematography. In essence a good old fashioned love story around the premise of falling in love with someone who you can't see. Except the Princess is a Prince in Aidan Turner, destined never to be seen by his true love and each character is marooned in a lake of their own self made loneliness and isolation. But throughout there is hope, the idea of altered perception in each and everyone of us... where we only choose to see what we want to see....and the very real dilemma of being careful for what you wish for.....Finally, we all need a tree house just like that one.... It's a real gem of a film ... made out of human foibles, weaknesses, hidden strengths and belief in others.... Special shout-outs to a recreation of Buster Keaton and to Ferris Bueller in a head bandage. Here's to all that is Dark in All of Us.
