Brilliant and touching

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

even when facing death, the guy (Cyril Collard) never considered to repent.generally speaking, the movie is about the so called "open relationship" a guy sleeps with another guy, then, sleeps with that guy's girlfriend, then, with the girlfriend's girlfriend(roommate). etc just like most french movies of the genre, there is nothing new. the guy who was like that deserved a totally good riddance..worthless and ruinful in the world..so being rotten in hell might be hopeful.since IMDb is happy at deleting my sincere reviews(against their radical leftist world view and true nature).well, that's enough for this one. amen

One of the best early films to deal with AIDs and the powerful feelings that come up when one has to deal with it. The acting and the passion of the roles by the actors is very good, very intense. The love for life that comes through in the desperation of the main characters is beautiful. Lots of frustration and anger about having AIDs but ultimately the choice to fight to live comes through and this film was much ahead of it's American counterparts for the time. Most of the contemporary films in America were about the death and dying of people with Aids not the struggle to go on living and that's what sets this film apart from the others of it's time.Highly recommended!!

Jean finds out that he's HIV positive, then meets a very desirable girl and a very desirable boy. He's not only wrecking his own life, but starts destroying theirs too. They fight over him and take stupid risks to show their love for him. very convincing performances, and an intriguing social study.Carlos is impossibly sexy as the male love interest Samy, and, although I'm no judge, the woman Laura is also very attractive.

When I saw it for the first time on 1st Russian Channel ORT in The Gold Collection I was so impressed I couldn't talk about it. This movie really changed me, changed the way I felt about myself & the world around. Cyril have done really great job to help people understand that there are other colours in this world besides black & white and sometimes people are learning a lot even if hurts to live. I remember 2 interesting quotes: the 1st is from Del Amitri song: "When U driving with your breakes on, when U swimming with your boots on - it's really hard to say U love someone, it's really hard to say U don't." And the 2nd is (somebody wrote once): everything that doesn't kill me - makes me stronger. Unfortunately we can't use it literally in this case. But it's the same situation with all heroes - they die young & became famous. Another thing I'd like to say is: has anyone ever tried to compare Cyril Collard's "Les Nuits Fauves" and Gregg Araki's 'The Living End"? I mean these 2 pictures are quite different but I felt both of it are really personal & chamber. And acting, editing, directing & filming I think has a lot in common. But the end in "Les Nuits Fauves" I like more. And the music is just great. It's not really professional but it makes it more touching. Thank U for reading this comment.
