A beautiful story of love, aging, and a secret life wanting to be lived. The movie is a slow pace, I believe it is for the viewer to enter into the story and hopefully gain a deeper meaning of love, aging, a secret life.

I watched it into 60 minutes, but nothing had interested me at all while expecting something fascinating. Boring! So, I quit. That was definitely waste of my time!

A beautiful piece of heartache. Colin Firth is brilliant.

Within a few minutes of the movie starting and I saw two men kissing I ejected the disc.

An excellent movie about a very real fear. The fear is living life without love. Don't listen to the comments about a "GAY" film, as it really doesn't matter what the sexual preference is. It just so happens a gay man in these times has…

Colin Firth played a gay English professor living in LA in the 60's. Well acted. And Julianne Moore had a small and unimportant part here too, trying her best to sound British. But the film didn't do much for me.

Did you ever have someone very close to you die? Were you told you were not welcome at the funeral? It remains a reality in most of the world. Colin Firth and Julianne Moore make it real. Having Nicholas Hoult adds to the mystery.

Colin Firth and Julianne Moore, actors worth watching in this poignant look at grieving and the search for meaning and connection.

A new twist on Carpe diem. Poignant, well done.

Watched only a few minutes of this movie. I like Colin Firth as an actor, which is the reason I chose this movie. Very weird beginning, slow moving story. Did not watch this movie.

A pointless movie. Well-acted but the story is just nonsense and boring. At least it’s only 1.5 hours of your life wasted.

It’s Southern California circa 1962; the Cuban missile crisis is looming, atomic paranoia is everywhere, and a new generation of adolescent boomers is beginning to feel the first stirrings of dissent. Against this backdrop of fear and…

Brilliant acting aside, I didn't like any of the characters in the film. Some lives are so flaccid that I didn't really care what happened to them.
