Long Nights Short Mornings

This is a good film that I suspect will live on as one of the most accurate depictions of what dating is like for millennials, particularly young men. Raw and brutal at times, soft and tender at others, it will speak directly to the heart of a certain kind of audience, therefore it is not for everyone.

Side note: how is Helen Rogers not a star yet??

Well i don't usually write reviews but seeing a movie like this get an IMDb score of 5.2 is frustrating to say the least.

you don't have to live in NYC to relate to James and the fact that we know nothing about his previous life makes it even easier. in fact we only know how he spends hid nights since he broke up with his girlfriend. he could be me or you or anyone.

He is a really handsome guy thus having lots of success with random girls he flirts. but this happens to be the problem, he gets trapped in superficial relationships and the pleasure of having sex. his ego is huge and seems unable to form any kind of spiritual connection.

his only way of dealing with the problems he faces is alcohol and women even when that's exactly the problem, he responds with even more women.

In general it's a great movie that shows exactly the vanity that overwhelms our world and how superficial and temporary human relationships can get. How alone you feel deep down trying to fill that void with sex and drugs! it's a 9 from me. maybe i am not that objective with this one but it's definitely 7++

Not your avg dating movie. The mood of the night, the sensuality of a french movie. Love is backside tragedy here. What he looks for is a mentor who can stop him from roaming down a lonely city(travis bicklish!). Amazingly moody and thoought provoking soundtrack by redding hunter. The actings are solid. The use of color and shade to evoke inner personalities. The spaces between dialogues. You remember the falling in loves in your live and all the fu*ed up moments in a instance. Doesn't matter if all the characters are attractive and desolating against you. You see the beauty of one of the last masculine portrayal of wet dream and nonprovoking malegaze. Director took an average storyline and made it a memorable epiphany of coped out relationship isses. Just fu"kin watch and absorb. 8/10 easily.

This movie is a very real and accurate portrait of the modern millennial man, and his disconnection from REAL relationships. I found myself weeping at the end because i saw my own face in James, as I'm sure many men our age will, and i couldn't believe that there was a film that so accurately depicted the culture of booze and one night stands. Searching for that great SOMETHING in life, but getting in your own way. I spent so many years on alcohol and drugs, going from one meaningless relationship to another, all the while leaving a trail of broken hearts in my wake.. Little did i know though that in the end it was my own heart that would be broken most completely. The scene where he has sex with lily in the hallway, then pulls out right at the end, refusing to even finish inside her, because he didn't really care about her, and that's all he wanted from her in the first place, not even looking her in the eyes or saying goodbye. The look on her face, knowing that she had been used, really made me feel like crap. This movie is absolutely aching in its honest beauty. From the acting, to the soundtrack, and the writing. Ill place this movie up there with some of my very favorites of all time.

The fight with oneself for affection, love and self-awareness.

I think its a great movie - it reminded me of Alfie so much!
