    Super cute

    Argentina has really surprised me with its gay themed films, this is another good one, slow a few times but worth seeing how the characters get involved, the end is real and it can be related to a lot gay/bi men.

    Solid 8 stars.

    Beautifully realized

    This film is quite a gem. I was hesitant going in as I am with most gay films I find, for fear of being let down more than anything, but this film definitely blew my expectations out of the water. While the story isn't necessarily anything we haven't seen before, it is beautifully well done and the chemistry between the two leads is phenomenal. Reason enough to give it a watch if you're into these types of gay storylines like I am. Thank you Marco Berger!

    Berger is a dream weaver!

    After watching Hawaii and then Plan B, Manuel Vignau's screen characters were just amazing! I don't know what Berger does or says to make these actors really get into their roles!! With The Blond One, again, a very Berger style of acting :) I was really touched by this movie, it's speaks about of lot of emotions that we all deal with everyday! As another reviewer commented, it is a film to be watched when I'm the right mood. Enjoy!! I look forward to reading more reviews soon... Is Marco working on anything new at the minute? I sure hope so!

    Sometimes silence says more than a thousand words

    The quiet scenes could capture all the emotions, sensuality, desire, tension, passion, nervousness and love in the air. Bravo! Both actors are super talented, especially "the blond one". I just enjoyed the whole time watching it, to me it told a love story between two flatmates, the outcome of this story is not as important and amusing as how every details of it happened.

    Heartwarming

    It was slow and repetitive at times, with little dialog, but this helped draw out the story somehow. And then you had bursts of dialog here and there, shedding light into the characters. The end came kind of suddenly, at first disappointing, but then surprisingly heart-warming, despite the previous sad development. Overall a quiet, sweet film.
