So all I can judge is the film and to me, it is exquisite. Perhaps I see some things in it the writers did not intend, but as a woman in her 70s who is thrust into contact with folks in their 20s-40s, even without the sexual overtones, it rings so true in the contrast it offers between/among the generations. These kids today are so different from the kids we were. They ask forbidden questions — incessantly. They make us old timers think and re-think the lives we have led and are living. They make us hunger to be young again and hunger to be left alone to enjoy the fictions of our old age.
To me, this was among the most intelligent and deeply moving films I have ever seen. Kudos to the producers, writers and director for making me think I will give cinema another chance!
