A Love Story...NOT
4 out of 5 stars
A Love Story...NOT
Comment: This was a "great" movie that "sucked. You will notice that the name of the movie is Blue Valentine... "A Love Story". This is anything but a love story. It is a play... all too common today... about two selfish immature people with lots of "baggage" looking for the easy road to life. Making decisions and not being accountable for those decisions. Not once thinking about how their daughter fits into the picture... except at the end when the male uses the daughter as a pawn to "make things right". I would have given 5 stars instead of 4 if the makers of this film had not also taken the easy way out and leave the audience hanging. There probably is enough material for the movie to pick up and move onto Blue Valentine 2, to win that Academy Award. And yes this movie will hit home for many viewers, both men and women... it did for me.

my rating is more of a 4.5.
Thank you for reading in advance

Blue Valentine is a 2010 American romantic drama film written and directed by Derek Cianfrance. Cianfrance, Cami Delavigne, and Joey Curtis wrote the film, and Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling played the lead roles as well as serving as co-executive producers for the film. The band Grizzly Bear scored the film. The film depicts a married couple, Dean Pereira (Gosling) and Cynthia "Cindy" Heller (Williams), shifting back and forth in time between their courtship and the dissolution of their marriage several years later.

For a while now I've been trying to put my finger on the reason why I like Ryan Gosling as an actor as much as I do. After watching this film a light bulb went off in my head; specifically, the scene in which he plays the ukulele and sings is a wonderful representation of the dedication he has to his craft. This isn't the first time Gosling has shown us that he's perfectly capable of learning a new skill - he plays the piano himself in ‘La La Land’ - and more than that he has a way of making himself look like a natural. His young and sometimes audacious spirit constantly puts him in a position to challenge himself and rise to the occasion, and what's not there to admire about that? Gosling is simply a talented spectacle of a man, and I mean that in the most endearing way ever.

The tone and the emotions present in this film make it easier for your average audience member to relate to these characters. Just about anybody knows what it is like fall in love with someone when it is least expected. In addition to that, the slow burn that sometimes accompanies and follows is a phenomenon that is explored in a way that feels authentically vulnerable. The director is sure to avoid feeding its audience small and shallow pieces of optimism along the way. No matter your background or previous experiences, there is at least one moment you will feel connected to on some level. It goes without saying that ending with a conclusion that isn't happy may turn some people off, But I see it as a brilliant opportunity to breathe life into a plot that unfortunately mirrors reality.

My one complaint, perhaps, would be that the segue of emotions between the main characters is not always seamless. it is easy to understand how Dean and Cindy fall in love. Is it easy to understand how some moments may initiate conflict between the main characters. The confusion is in not having a more insightful understanding about the changes in emotion they have overtime. It almost seems as if there was a rush to get from point A to point C, and in this leaves point B being almost detrimentally neglected. The trivia of this film states that this was at first intended to be a love story, and that the director eventually chose to make this a representation of the dissipation of these relationships. I respect the director's decision to go this direction, but that is just something to keep in mind when watching this film.

In regards to cinematography all I can do is echo comments that have been made for me. The combination of shot quality and editing make this feel like a documentary of sorts; the audience truly feels like a mutual Observer and is invited to project their own feelings onto scenes as often as they would like.

An astounding balance of authenticity and fantasy: I would recommend!

Some viewers are having a hard time with this film and it is actually understood. For decades Hollywood has been dishing out the fairy tale love story film with the happily ever after ending or the chick flick films perfect for date night. These are great for escape or date nights but in no way based on reality. But film is an art form meant to educate the audience and show them realities and subjects they may not want to see but need to. For some this film will be too depressing and too dreary. But this is the first film in decades to so fully and realistically immerse itself into the showing of a relationship that half of this country could be going through. We have Cindy and Dean who are married with a daughter Frankie. From the beginning of the film who know all is not well. There is constant tension between the couple, fights are picked, nasty things are said. There is passion still so strong but now it comes out as true distaste. This is our couple years after they met, fell in love and got married. The story is shown with the problems of present day and flashbacks to the period when they met and fell in love.

There is no magic dust to spread over this couple to make all well. Even when they met all was not perfect. Cindy came from a verbally abusive household and was pregnant by her current boyfriend when she meets Dean, a high school drop-out working for a moving company. Dean pursued Cindy and it takes a while to work his way into her good graces. The story of their growing love is very believable, sometimes sweet but always has its own problems. In the wrong hands this film could have been a disaster but with writer/director Derek Cianfrance and more secifically the outstanding, superb performances of Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling this film becomes a masterpiece. Ms. Williams and Mr. Gosling inhabit these characters so fully the feel at times is like a documentary rather than a movie. This is far beyond great acting. Their immersion into these characters puts on the screen emotions so raw, honest and true that the audience often feels like the are spying on a real couple. There is much ad lib here and the couple lived together for a lengthy time to truly feel like a couple. These performances show the actors at perhaps the highlight and pinnacle of both their already impeccably impressive careers.

In the story the couple decides to spend a night together at a hotel to try and rekindle some spark. The story is simple and told moreso through the emotions and lives they lead. There is explicit sex here that plays a major part in the story. It's not always pretty and truly shows how sometimes sex and affection becomes just routine and mechanical, truly unemotional. Love means different things to Dean and Cindy and when the film ends there is no true resolution to their relationship. The viewer will be truly emotionally drained and rather stunned. But in the hands of Cianfrance the viewer is guided and handled carefully with the fine line never being crossed. And the lasting impression this film will leave is true respect and admiration for the mutually superb, intense, realistic and ground breaking acting of Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling. It is also sad for the viewer to have to acknowledge that there are couples all over the country leading just this sort of life. Their story deserves to be told just as much as the Hollywood fairy tale. Be prepared before viewing this film and you will be shown what a film in the correct hands can truly deliver. Highly recommended.

I'd seen it before. It's even better than I remembered. It's a film wonderfully acted, edited and written. It takes cinematic poignancy to new levels.

It's difficult to imagine a film that better sketches the unstated, silent and accumulated emotional debits and credits that characterize marriage through time.

Did Cindy accept Dean on one set of terms when they wed and then a few years later change the rules of the game when she was exposed to a more professional set of people in her career? Was she entitled to? Did Dean's exceptional pre marital sacrifices for Cindy prevent her from wanting more from him years later when he was at all times a known underachiever and great father? Dean was never anything more or less than than the man he was when he rescued Cindy at a pivotal and tragic point in her life before they were married. This was no longer enough for her. The film is among many other things, a meditation on the difficulty of sustained gratitude.

This movie is just an excellent platform for pondering the mystery of marriage, the impact of family ties and the meaning of love and commitment.

Ryan Gosling and Michelle Williams are stunningly good in this movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scheitern einer Liebe am desillusionierenden Alltag
Reviewed in Germany on July 4, 2016
Das verflixte siebte Jahr zeigt das traurige Ende einer Ehe, die mit romantischer Liebe und Illusion begann, aber einen möglichen Kern des Scheiterns schon bei der Hochzeit in sich trug.

Auf Vorschlag von Dean (Ryan Gosling) verbringen er und seine Ehefrau Cindy (Michelle Williams) eine Nacht in einem Motel, in einem futuristisch gestalteten und nicht heimelig eingerichteten, in neonfarbiges buntesLicht getauchten Zimmer. Cindy hat eigentlich überhaupt keine Lust darauf, aber Dean setzt sichh durchm Cindy macht gute Mine zum traurigen Spiel. In wiederholten Rückblenden zeigt Regisseur Derek Cianfrance, unter welchen Umständen die Ehe zusammenkam und scheiterte.

Die Medizinstudentin lernt den High-School-Abbrecher, der als Möbelpacker arbeitet, als einfühlsamen romantischen Mann kennen, der ihr unter anderem einen köstlichen musikalischen Liebesantrag macht. Schwanger von ihren vorherigen Freund entschließt sie sich zu einer Abtreibung und liegt mit schon eingeführtem Spekulum (medizinisches Wekzeug, mit dem vordere und hintere Scheidenwand auseinandergehalten werden, um Blick und Zugang auf den Gebärmutterhals zu erhalten) auf dem gynäkologischen Stuhl, als sie es sich fast in letzter Sekunde anders überlegt. (Das Verhalten des Arztes in dieser Situation, der ihre Entscheidung nicht nur widerspruchlos akzeptiert, was selbstverständlich sein sollte, sondern Cindy einfühlsam in die Obhut der OP-Schwester übergibt und den OP verlässt, muss ich als vorbildlich bezeichnen.) Dean unterstützt Cindy in ihrer Entscheidung , und Tochter und nicht biologischer Vater lieben sich sehr, wie man auch am traurigen Ende des Filmes sieht, als das Mädchen sich an den fortgehenden Vater klammert.

Cindy und Dean sind sicher nicht die einzigen, denen dies widerfährt, und es muss auch nicht immer so sein, aber hier schält sich für mich heraus, dass Cindys (von Dean mitgetragener) Entscheidung für das Kind ganz erheblich zu dem Scheitern beigetragen hat. Ohne die Kleine hätten sie sich mit der Entscheidung zu eine Ehe wahrscheinlich mehr Zeit gelassen, sie hätten länger prüfen können, ob ihre unterschiedlichen Zukunftsvorstellungen in Einklang zu bringen gewesen wären, Cindy wäre vielleicht Ärztin geworden und hätte die Familie alleine ernähren können, Dean kann seine Vorstellungen eher verwirklichen als Cindy, aber deren Unzufriedenheit ist ein schleichend wirksames Gift, das die Gemeinsamkeit und die Liebe auf der Strecke bleiben lässt.
Dean hat als Anstreicher ohne im Film gezeigter Ausbildung einen Job, in dem er "schon morgens um 8 Uhr eine Flasche Bier trinken kann". Cindy wird Krankenschwester, nicht Ärztin (ein >nur< habe ich bewusst nicht viórangestellt, als Medicus sehe ich meine Patienten im Schnitt 8 Minuten beinder täglichen Visite, das Pflegepersonal deutlich länger und erhält durch Beobachtung und Gespräche wertvolle Informatione, die unverzichtbar sind). Allmählich schleicht sich besonders bei Cindy eine Unzufriedenheit ein, sie hatte sich die Zukunft ganz anders vorgestellt, und Dean fühlt sich auch unausgesprochenen Vorwürfen ausgesetzt, weil er metrkt, dass Cindy mit seiner Auffassung nicht glücklich ist
Cindy und Dean sind auf ihre Art beide sympathisch, aber wie man nicht erst am Ende der Ehe und des Filmes sieht, etwas blauäugig in eine vorschnell geschlossenen Ehe geschlittert, die wirklich "filmreife" musikalische Liebeserklärung und der Zauber der ersten Verliebtheit haben dazu geführt, ffass die Entscheidung zur Ehe unausgegoren war, und sowohl Michelle Williams, für einen Oscar nominiert, den dann Natalie Portman für "Black Swan" erhielt, als auch Ryan Gosling überzeugen voll mit ihrem Spiel, das zeigt, wie die Beziehung nicht mit einem Knall unf großen Streit endet, sondern peu à peu abbröckelt , die verliebte Vorstellung zu Beginn ist ernüchterndem Alltag , Unzufriedenheit und Entfremdung gewichen, ohne das man einem Partner eine Vorwurf machen kann.
"Blue Valentine" ist sicher nicht so spektakulär und bildgewaltig wie "Black Swan" mit seinem tragischen (symbolischen?) Tod des weissen Schwans in Gestalt der wunderbaren Natalie Portman, aber die Darstellung der kleinen Alltäglichkeiten, die letzendlich auch zu einem tragischen Ende führen, sind im Endeffekt doch deutlich realistischer als in "Black Swan", ich finde beide Filme sehr gut. "Black Swan" fasziniert rasch, während "Blue Valentine" seine volle dramatische Wirkung langsam schleichend entfaltet und erst bei mit nach dem Ende richtig zum Tragen kam.
Dieser Film ist so gut, weil er nichts Spektakuläres zeigt, viele Details habe ich jetzt nach einem Tag schon wieder vergessen, aber der Gesamteindruck wirkt lange nach
Ein großartiger Film über viele Kleinigkeiten, die zu Großem, hier Traurigem führen, und eine Entscheidung für Michelle Williams als Oscarpreisträgerin wäre nicht falsch gewesen.

5.0 out of 5 stars INCREÍBLE MICHELLE WILLIAMS
Reviewed in Spain on June 23, 2014
No es una película complaciente, ni una comedia romántica de Meg Ryan. Realmente, esta película comienza justo donde terminan todas esas comedias románticas para dar paso al deterioro del amor. Ryan Goslin excelente, como casi siempre. Pero lo que hace MICHELLE WILLIAMS en esta película, es un ejemplo que debe ser estudiado en las escuelas de actores de todo el planeta. Es de una credibilidad, una honestidad y un compromiso con su profesión, que ya podrían aprender otras estrellitas de Hollywood.
