Plan B

Plan A is 'make a great film that runs under 90 minutes'; PLAN B is 'make a great film'. By all rights Director Marco Berger's tale of an Argentina man's plan to win back his girlfriend by wooing her new love interest should have had me hitting the FF with its long, extended takes and silent montage sequences. But the acting by the two leads and Berger's bravado in not rushing his tale of unlikely romance pays off. It takes the full 100 minutes - so stay with it - but I found this film genuinely compelling - sometimes irritatingly so. I wanted to say 'who cares' and hit the OFF button but the guys are so truthful and down-to-earth that even the implausible premise seems perfectly likely. Mark PLAN B a success.

maybe it's because it reminds me the hard time I've had in my twenties to figure out how I could tell a guy I loved him but I love this movie which is quite simple in terms of plot and acting. It's merely due to the two actors of course that let us think they discover the feelings for each others as well as their potential acting on the screen. Both of them don't seem to be famous in Argentina but they would deserve to go further in their acting career.

Great movie, photo is undoubtedly gorgeous (I loved the colors of the buildings - quite impressionist view of the city) and I definitely recommend it to people for its delicate and simple way to show the carefulness we may use sometimes before going further into a relationship and also the ambiguity straight men relationship may have regarding the way they express their feelings to each other.

WOW! I loved this gem of a movie. Two alleged "straight" guys discovering some feeling between them might seem like the plot of a good porno film but this is handled with such realism that the audience can't help but feel drawn in.

At first I wondered why there were lingering shots of the buildings' exteriors, but then I started to like the (what I'm guessing anyway) was the symbolism of imprisonment of feelings,coldness,loneliness, austerity.

I also loved the style of leaving in background noise during great moments. Isn't that the way real life is? I want to see this movie again and the actors were excellent! I especially liked Pablo, who has one scene of internal pain that is not forced in any way and is totally believable.

I'm going to watch it again!

This a very understated movie. Because Spanish is not my first language, it is sometimes difficult to get the full meaning of a movie. Subtitles are not always translated with the real meaning of the dialogue. Because of the method of telling this story, and the superb acting the language didn't really matter. So much of the story is in the facial expressions, attitude, and eyes of the main characters. It takes time to get into the story, but the story is well worth the wait. You need to pay attention, put details together...but you should love this movie! I was pleasantly surprised at how much I got into enjoyed this movie and the way it was told. I watched it twice!

I literally stumbled upon this movie and ,unlike all the movie trash out there this is worth your time. I do not even think it is fair to label this a "gay" film. To me that genre should simply be erased, and changed to a love story like any other- whether it's between two woman, two men, a man and woman. Although I digress... I like how the film dealt with the two characters coming to terms with feelings never confronted before, where the friendship line is crossed. It does not get moody, it portrays very realistically how two people may deal with loving a friend. Although the dialogue is pretty minimal, it is very poignant and direct. The scenery of Argentina is shown throughout, and the little things in this film matter. If given the chance to watch this film...do it! You will not regret it.
