Review of Down by Love

Down by Love (2016)
8/10
Imprisoned
11 April 2023
No pun intended - I doubt there are any warm colors in prison ... on the other hand, they do have some painting sessions too, so there is that. But this is about a forbidden love - about what it does to people who should not love each other - mentally and otherwise. And it may not be the one in prison who actually is ... a prisoner of love .... well you know what I mean.

All that aside, the acting is incredible. And Adele really bares it all - so yes a lot of nudity, which you should not have issues with, if you want to watch the movie. But it also is quite straining when you think about the relationships of the characters.

Very well laid out - and it sort of makes sense - stuff like this happens and the movie is a reminder. Now you can blame one party or the other, depending on your moral compass .... but sometimes things just fall into place without anyone being able to stop them ... well those involved that is ... hurting others is the byproduct for sure. Not an easy watch, but quite passionate in more than one sense.
