Festival de Cine de San Sebastián, película número 8. El tema elegido es muy personal para mí, pero se presentó de una manera tan fría que me mantuvo alejado de toda la historia. Seguía esperando el encuentro entre la excelente música dramática y la gradación dramática de la historia, pero eso prácticamente nunca sucedió y más bien prevaleció la decepción por el contenido. El personaje de Elizabeth interpretado por Natalie Portman fue el que más me gustó, hacía mucho tiempo que no la veía en ningún lugar, exceptuando Thor, por lo que pude recordar aún más sus famosos papeles. Julianne Moore, por supuesto, también fue excelente como siempre y me sorprendió el papel secundario de Charles Melton, conocido por Riverdale. La película merecería más emociones fuertes, ya que deberían ser la base de la historia tratada.

What I appreciate the most in May December is the originality. The topic of a mature woman's relationship with a young boy, discussed in the media, is something I may have seen in a TV movie, but certainly not on the big screen. And I've certainly never seen the theme of an actress preparing for a role in a film inspired by a real event. She is to portray the mature woman, and therefore, as part of her research, she briefly intrudes into their lives and privacy. It’s a very good combination and brilliantly acted. The most curious thing about the whole film is the music, it is perhaps overly dramatic, you are expecting some brutal drama, a violent scene, and then something quite ordinary comes along. To illustrate: the scene that sticks in my mind the most is when Julianne Moore is in the kitchen preparing snacks for a garden party and when she opens the fridge and stares staring into it, this brutally dramatic music starts playing, making you think she's found a severed head, or maybe she's going to grab a knife and slit her wrists, only to say that there aren’t enough hot-dogs. The result is very comical, and there are several scenes like that. There is also some drama there, Julianne and Natalie Portman are both great, and as I said, it's all very original. I also enjoyed very much the role of Charles Melton, the young father who begins to analyze and question his life and his relationship with his much older wife. [Festival de Cannes 2023]

The Golden Globes nomination in the "comedy/musical" category is a good joke. There is barely a trace amount of humor in Todd Haynes's latest; many viewers won't notice it at all, I'd guess. Either way, this is a superbly executed and imagined film about broken people and their broken relationships. Watching it, I was left with a sense of anxiety and nervousness resulting from the insincerity and nonstop pretense of virtually all the characters. It was debilitating and uncomfortable. Yet, paradoxically, it moves along briskly and is not heavy-handed art.

A story about the challenges of relationships between partners with significant age differences and the social impact on lives and surroundings. An interesting concept, based on real and published cases, delving into the feelings of those involved more than the opinions of others. However, I missed a more thorough development and, most importantly, a conclusion. Perhaps it is intentional to leave the viewer in doubt about how it actually turned out, but it didn't work well for me. A good movie that I don't need to see again.
