Love Is Love

About This Movie

So, Love Is Love from '86 is kind of an oddity in the landscape of its time. The tone feels like a mix of earnestness and playful rebellion, which is interesting given how the themes of love and identity are approached. The pacing is a bit uneven but there’s something charming about that - it gives it a unique rhythm that reflects the messy nature of relationships. Practical effects are sparse but what’s there has a raw quality that adds to the film's character. It’s hard to pin down why it stands out, maybe it’s the performances that feel so genuine amidst the quirkiness. It’s definitely a film that lingers in the mind long after viewing, not for the usual reasons, but for something more subtle.

This film has seen limited releases over the years, with few collector editions available, making it something of a rarity. The scarcity adds to its growing allure among niche collectors who appreciate its distinct perspective. While it may not have a huge following, those who seek it out often find themselves pleasantly surprised by its unconventional storytelling and raw performances.
