Sorry Angel

Inspiring, emotional, yet tragic story of discovering love and facing loss. The line of poetry that came to me at the ending of the film was :« It is better to have loved and lost / Than never to have loved at all » (Tennyson) The characters are three dimensional and interact in a way that French cinema does so well. No Hollywood drama or histrionics here but rather believable relationships through which the story unfolds. The sad fate of people with AIDS in the 90s is underscored with great sensitivity. We have come so far over the past twenty years in treatment that it is no longer a death sentence. The ending is tastefully done, in no way maudlin. Keep a few tissues handy though.

although this is another aids related film (one of several storylines,) it is superbly acted and directed. there is a different sensibility in the portrayal of the horror of those times before medication was found to assist against the affliction. the three main stars of the film portray characters of different ages and the story was beautifully written to reflect their experiences, or lack thereof, of the storyline. the characters made me feel like I was watching real people thanks to the writer, director and actors.

This was as confusing a film as I've ever seen. It has rapid-fire dialogue between various pairs of characters, and the subtitles appear a good two seconds after the speech. Toward the end, the lapse grows to four seconds. Much else was very good, but ultimately the confusion about what was being said and happening dominated. Really a shame.

IN a world that is drowning in typical McHollywood Bilge, this is another refreshing contrast. Yes, it deals with AIDS and the 90s, but that's where the similarities to anything prior stop. It refreshingly deals with male romance, as opposed to just male sex. The characters are developed or developing (with us), and present a believable strata of relationships. And, as only the French can, it is highly nuanced with scenery, accessory over and undertones.

The film is very French , it’s cold but warm, sad yet funny and you feel as if the film is never focused and that’s because the characters lives are in despair deep where you can’t see but you can feel their weight. That takes great actors and script to pull off.

I'd seen this movie twice and wanted to add it to my library so I ordered the DVD. Well, that never showed up so Amazon refunded the purchase price. But there was a bit of dialogue I wanted to nail down so I rented the movie on Prime. Trouble was, the subtitles (very small, by the way) were two seconds out of sync with the action on screen so it was like the sequence in "Singing in the Rain" where Gene Kelly and Jean Hagen appear to be saying each other's lines. Very amusing in the musical; not so much in "Sorry Angel." I put up with it for about half an hour and then bailed. A real disappointment.

Could have been shorter; needs tighter editing. Beautiful shots of men's bodies, skin contact (no full-frontal). You may like it. Captions are out of sync.

This film really strikes an extremely poignant note of identity for those of us in the QUEER lifestyle. Yes it is a French language film, but that only adds to its effectiveness. I was fortunate to be stationed in Europe. I could not help but learn some French-a very beautiful language. While I could not identify will all parts of the message of this film, a vast quantity did!! NJMJr!!

Extremely well storytelling
