Lili and Gerda were interesting in the movie and even more interesting in real life!
18 December 2016
This movie made me undergo feelings that I have never been exposed to. The story is told in such a poetic way that it does no longer matter what's true and what's fictional. I'd have loved an actual transgender actor/actress for the main role, but I can't deny how brilliant Eddie Redmayne's acting was. Also, Alicia Vikander was as touching as the character she was playing.

After watching the movie, I've done some readings on the real lives of Lili and Gerda and was surprised and amazed to realize that they were even more interesting than the way they were pictured in the movie, which is not so often the case.

Blue Jay (I) (2016)
10/10
The first movie that was worth a review
4 December 2016
It's the first review I'm writing. Actually, I've never felt the need of writing a review- thought that the score I give is already a good contribution. But Blue Jay is something else. It's the most genuine feeling I've ever felt while watching a movie, in the sense the once I finished it, I didn't feel than it was far from my own reality at all. The way nostalgia was pictured is fascinating. The words that were used were so close to the words that I would have used myself in such a situation that sometimes, I've found myself saying out loud, at the same time, what one of them were saying.

Magical, genuine, sweet, emotional, simple, true. Brilliant.
