“Love and Bruises” is all about what a relationship should NOT be. The desperate need for love leading to a doomed relationship, the wrong choices, humiliation, attachment to the wrong person because one cannot stand on its own feet. Acting is great, yet, this is a story told so many times, in so many different ways and lacks the spark that will really make it stand out from the lot.
My rating: 05/10
Despair, Passion, Dead-Ends. The struggle of two people who come together because of the “wall” the face. A “wall” that because of their character differentiates them from their social environment. A “wall” with which they are always on a head on collision… Being together may solve some issues but creates many more. The “wall” does not forgive.
Outstanding performances, a direction efficiently communicating the character’s anguish and frustration, realism to the extreme.
