Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.
Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)
As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.
The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).
Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
轻盈小电影，晚风吻尽荷花叶，让我醉倒在池边。
如果我是DJ你会爱我吗
看豆瓣才恍然大悟是盛夏光年是蓝色大门。。。郝蕾演中年人谈恋爱演得真是可爱娇俏同时又能妈里妈气。虽然吴磊肯定是没有张子枫能演，但他怕是流下了在娱乐圈长大成人的真实眼泪。希望年轻人都勇敢真诚一点，那么渣男渣女少一些，浪费自己和他人的时间血泪完全可以拿去追求梦想，如果他们还有梦想的话
很青春，我喜欢的人不喜欢我，但也和我玩了一天，我永远记得那天，两位主演不错
高中生的小打小闹……抹去了身份/性别的MING就像所有被抹去被消声的🌈群体一样。
颜值不高的张子枫，这几年她的变化和努力大家有目共睹，如此实力派，我个人是非常认可的，她就是下一个周冬雨。
主要是激起了我一种情绪。港真，我真的没有很喜欢五月天，可是我工作快六年，每年都有小朋友坦诚真诚的因为五月天跟我请假，去看演唱会在外面过夜回不来的，心情不好听歌一晚上第二天起不来的，看视频看一夜咖啡喝太多心跳加速的，反正，我都准了吧，但分还是扣了…
隔了近一个月，我才在影院看到这部暑假值得一看的青春片。青春或许总是会留有遗憾的，像郑宇星对ming深沉的爱却爱而不得，又像陈辰对郑宇星两年的暗恋到一步步的试探接近却无果而终。“我要是能喜欢你就好了”，显示出爱的人不爱自己的遗憾与痛苦。看到最后，我觉得ming是男是女都无所谓了，ming更像是人们对于美好爱情所寄予希望的一个象征。比起《盛夏光年》对于好朋友的暗恋却没有勇气在一起的遗憾，这部在陈辰告白后各自都学会了成长与放下，接受爱情里的错位与缺失，无论是对于父母还是对于自己。
可可爱爱的少年少女，却是落花有意流水无情的错付，不过显然少女情怀总是诗，错付也是美好的回忆。
它是今年以来我觉得最棒的院线电影，也是这几年最喜欢的国产青春片。
如果没有电音+同性，就一般了。
也真是浪费了子枫妹妹和吴磊的颜，后面拍的还算青春唯美，但是整部电影真是有够尴尬的，不知道这种尴尬是本身影片内容还是真尴尬，总之是挺糟糕的。
全程感慨自己真是老了吧 人家高中生都是跟女生一起戴无线蓝牙耳机听歌 用电吉他 玩电音 搁以前的青春电影也就是CD机和木吉他 不过不管什么年代 青春的本质都是不会变的 都是一样的爱而不得 一样的充满遗憾
那是失去童真变成大人的夜晚，也是人生从充满期待的未知陷入到无可改变的已知的无所适从
首先，宣发和正片都不是一个公司做的，预告片的制作者基本上都不会是导演自己，因为术业有专攻，宣传公司为宣传效果负责，导演一般很少干预，也不太会干预，因为拍完作品就是出品方的了。第二我不觉得这个电影炒CP有什么问题，其实这部电影讲的是两个对爱情充满懵懂的青少年的互相探索和取暖，在目前的审核体系下，导演已经非常成功的把他想触碰的题材和表达传递出去了。少年的爱情非常的脆弱，也很细腻，如风中摇摆，就算是性少数者在情窦初开的时候也是会有性向的摇摆，怀疑，这很正常，《请以你的名字呼唤我》就展现了这一段。所以，不要拿无知和头脑简单当纯情。
青春的另一面就是，你喜欢的人，很可能不喜欢你，或者说，不能喜欢你，这让我不由想到导演当年的《盛夏光年》。人物很贴，故事很妙。愿我们都能学会勇敢，勇敢去爱，勇敢面对自己。
宣发阶段的迷惑性太强了。本来是单纯想看枫磊拍bg青春片的，结果电影远比想象复杂。行叭，多一星给喜欢的子枫！
不再是过去传统校园爱情，能够接受的话，还挺好看的
青春就是这样懵懂莽撞，又爱又恨，不断试探，也勇敢也胆怯。影片中有那么多希望，最后的希望，是希望我们能更诚实地面对自己，希望我们可以更勇敢。
后面开始讲喜欢的人不喜欢自己这种故事，同病相怜又有些许差别的两个人，倒数三二一，成年才能踏入的club。想要一个吻，情不自禁，却没有如愿。
