aka Blue Is The Warmest Color
I honestly wasn't expecting to get absorbed into Abdellatif Kechiche's adaptation of Julie Maroh's graphic novel Le bleu est une couleur chaude as much as I did.
La Vie d'Adèle – Chapitres 1 & 2 might be nearly 3 hours long but I honestly wouldn't have minded it if it was longer than that it was so interesting to watch. Adèle Exarchopoulos, who plays the title role, is simply amazing with her natural performance that speaks to you with each and every frame no matter how mundane her action is. Hardly a moment is wasted as nearly every moment strengthens and further develops the characters into something more intricate and favorable no matter what their flaws might be. My only real qualm would be the number of pointless sex scenes (one which clocked in at over 6 minutes) that did nothing to develop the story but maybe gave the director a collection of fap outtakes for his own private collection.
