too much love
16 June 2001
This is a truely tragic film about a very innocent woman's struggle to come to terms with her own sexualty. I expected less than this movie delivered. Ready for something along the lines of Sexo Pudor y Lagrimas, this movie surprised me. Demasiado Amor is very much a European styled movie shot in Mexico. There is no Hollywood ending, the storyline rarely breaks into cliche, and the journey is compelling keeping what could easily have been a rather dull film entertaining. Rather, what this film delivers is a movie about deep inner conflict and emotion that, like what happens to most of us, ends up being messy and problematic. In addition, it ends without the viewer feeling patronized by a director who needs to make one feel good in the end.
