Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

zif ofoz Why only 4 stars?Because I got bored watching scene after scene over acted and stretched out too long. It's an easy story to guess where it's going.Don't get me wrong. The actresses were fine in their roles but the story went lacking. Who couldn't guess where the girls friendship was going and who couldn't guess the ending? Photography is beautiful, especially the snowy beach scenes - wonderful composition and color - and the mother sitting on the bathtub - beautiful!

Kathleen Trotter So, I am biased because my mom stars in the movie, but she has been in lots of movies and I have not reviewed them on IMDb :-) This movie deserves my positive review. I respect that it is about three woman (three female leads is not the norm) and it was written and directed by two wonderful and talented women (again, two women in the driver's seat is not the norm). It explores the lives of three women - how they evolve and grow, create bonds and learn how to not simply exist, but impact the world that they live in. Life passes in an instant - we all have to make our instant meaningful. It is not enough to simply exist - we have to love and feel life! All the performances are outstanding, but I have to say I burst with pride when I watch my mom. I have seen EVERYTHING my mother has done so I am actually the best person to say that her performance is outstanding! My mom is always amazing, but she really hits it out of the park this time. Watch the movie - you will enjoy it!

Kathy Lowinger Most movies treat the notion of love and age as a laughable combination. Tru Love does not. It treats its characters with dignity and tenderness, and the result is a fine exploration of love and connection. Alice, recently widowed, comes to Toronto to visit her daughter Suzanne. Suzanne is cold and distant, and uses her job as a reason to avoid engaging with everyone, including Alice. Even her house is impersonal. Alice, on the other hand, is of an age when she has nothing to lose. She breaks our hearts as she tentatively allows herself to follow her unexpected attraction to a rudderless young woman, a friend of her daughter's. None of this sinks into mawkishness or cheap shocks. The writers and the director clearly love each character for her strengths and weaknesses. Each of the actresses, especially Kate Trotter, is marvellous. And for once, Toronto is presented as Toronto. Don't miss this movie!

Red-125 True Luv (2013) was co-directed by Kate Johnson and Shauna MacDonald. It's an interesting, unusual film about love between two women of different generations. Tru, played by director MacDonald, is a free-spirited lesbian who helps out a friend, Suzanne, played by Christine Home, when Suzanne's mother Alice, played by Kate Trotter, comes to visit. Suzanne makes the word "workaholic" really sound inadequate. She's beyond that.That leaves Tru, who doesn't appear to have a job, and Kate, who rarely sees Suzanne, with time to be together. Suzanne may be too busy to see her mother, but she's still not happy about Tru seeing her mother. The rest of the movie moves forward from there.We saw this film at the Little Theatre as part of the outstanding Rochester ImageOut LGBT Film Festival. It will work well on DVD.
