Love, Lust & Longing

About This Movie

Love, Lust & Longing is an interesting exploration of human connection, set against the backdrop of a Bed & Breakfast that feels almost deceptively quaint. Rachel, the lead, presents a raw performance as a prostitute navigating her feelings for James, a man in transition after his marriage. The film dives into themes of love versus lust, and the complications that arise when you mix personal desires with societal judgments. The pacing has this gentle ebb and flow, which complements the emotional undertones perfectly, and while the director remains unknown, the authenticity of the performances keeps the narrative engaging despite its rough edges.

This film has had a bit of a rough time finding a wide audience, so it’s not the easiest to track down. It was released in limited formats, making copies somewhat scarce. Collector interest has been growing, especially among those who appreciate indie films with complex character studies and emotional depth, but finding a physical copy in good condition can be a challenge.
