I Love You Renato

Although I do not speak or understand Portuguese, this film is so well done, that it is not difficult to follow the story line. The relationship between Beto, Andre and Adriana is convincing and moving due to the profound chemistry that exists between the three actors. Vinícius Moulin Allemand, Ingrid Conte and Felippe Vaz is what gives this film life as their performances were right on the mark in portraying three young teenagers caught up in a complicated, yet passionate love triangle.

The supporting cast was equal to the task, specifically Beto's mother who provided effective comic relief even though I did not understand most of her dialogue in Portuguese.

The writing, cinematography and directing was superb. I didn't even mind the out of focus shots, which would otherwise be considered a distraction for me.

This is a film that worth watching even if you don't have subtitles.
