Passages - Avis

While there’s much acute pain in Passages, it can also be funny in a way that smacks of self-deprecation.

Ira Sachs excels with thorny love triangle drama.

A bittersweet reckoning deftly illustrated by a duo on opposite ends of a relationship’s chaotic twists and turns, Passages revels in the fallout of fucking around and finding out.

...creates a rare tension between the unvarnished immediacy of its cast and the unflinching steadiness with which they’re flattened into the frame.

...it’s one of Sachs’ most fully-realised and psychologically perceptive works.

Anchored by excellent performances from its three intertwined leads, Passages is alternately tender and thorny in its close character study of a narcissist, and as a romantic drama with no winners.

...enthralling...

...a briskly-moving, turbulent, emphatically sexy, deliberately exasperating love triangle in crazy times.

Slowly a slightly toxic relationship turns into something utterly venomous.

Franz Rogowski spiller endnu en gang lærredet sitrende elektrisk...

...filmen illustrerar hur sex kan användas som ett vapen...

Jag överraskas ständigt av berättelsens rättframma ton och den spelar långt ifrån alla klichéer.

...en både vacker och hjärtskärande romantisk film som berör. Dessutom med några av de bästa sexscener jag sett på länge.

Filmen porträtterar ett romantiskt kaos fullt av svek, narcissism och självisk lusta som endast tycks föra våra tre parter längre ifrån varandra ju längre filmen går.

...en delikat skåret skive af noget, der ligner levet liv.
