BEGINNERS

May 11th, 2011

BEGINNERS- 2010. Synopsis by Netflix. “Based on indie director Mike Mills’s relationship with his father, this intriguing drama tells the story of Oliver (Ewan McGregor), a graphic artist coming to grips with the imminent death of his father (Christopher Plummer), who, at 75, has one last secret: He’s gay. Both inspired and confused by his father’s determination to find true love at last, Oliver tentatively pursues a romance with commitment-shy French actress Anna (Mélanie Laurent).” Good early reviews. TRDB. Mixed review in NY Times on 6/3/22 and friends of mine hated it. TRDB.

12/4/11- I enjoyed this movie very much. Great acting, very creatively done and what I thought was a very realistic portrayal of a more common situation than most would imagine. TRDB. Netflix.
