This was the first of the videos that started a trend of sex education videos in the early 1990s . I guess the idea behind it was for liberated women to go into a high street store and buy it without any type of guilt or inhibition , but no doubt the main buyer market was teenage boys and dirty old men
THE LOVERS GUIDE is groundbreaking in the fact that it publicised that the couples involved were real life partners but this is slightly dishonest , yes the main couple featured Wendy and her husband were indeed a real life couple who'd been married several years but there was some public controversy that at least one of the couples Kathryn ( The gorgeous brunette ) and Marino ( The well buffed geezer with a ponytail ) had never met one another until they appeared on set where they had unprotected sex for the camera . For a video that self righteously dedicates segments to safe sex it is rather hypocritical
Seeing as it's for education purposes and not pornography as such there's limits as to what can be shown but as a sex education video it's not uninformative though I doubt if you'll be gasping " I never knew that "
As a footnote the main couple featured became something of sexual problem agony aunts in the British press - Until it was revealed that Wendy's husband had a serious heart condition which put a stop to sex . I almost felt sorry for this couple who confessed that they used to make love as often as ten times a day but now couldn't make love once a day because it was too dangerous . My small amount of sympathy soon vanished when shortly afterwards the couple split up and raced off to the gutter press in order to dish the dirt on one another to the highest bidder .
形式非常厉害，剪裁也很得当。极简的表现主义光影建筑竟然非常服帖。
科恩兄弟中单飞的乔尔·科恩玩了一把《麦克白》，这个不得不和奥逊威尔斯以及波兰斯基那两版拿来比较，布景服装依旧简陋，当作舞台剧的话，只见大家都在努力的背台词，却没有足够的表演热情，让本已“老态龙钟”的丹泽尔·华盛顿更显木讷，而当作电影的话，影片的调度与台词的取舍显得又显得那么累赘而随性。几乎一无是处。
HIV没有打败他 反而是最亲近的人差点杀死他 还好生活总有希望不是吗
具冲击力的布景，极简，黑白镜头下一切显得那样的惨兮兮。但是表演、台词和运镜都太舞台化了。
是那种看五分钟和看一百零五分钟感受不会有太大区别的电影，我们已经知道莎翁是如何做的了，但乔尔·科恩并没有给出不一样（不见得是更好，但应该是更新）的东西。女巫造型挺像《第七封印》里的死神。
像一个大型MV，很清新很夏天，也很治愈。清新脱俗的视听中，把关于死亡，性向，爱情，亲情，友情的故事娓娓道来。青春就是会经历一些伤痛的时刻，这样才能成长。当被置于死地，等待着幸福来敲门时，别忘了要握紧拳头随时准备出击的等待。
第五个麦克白！开头女巫过分可怕，半夜刺杀那一幕也真实的可怕；denzel好镇定啊，称王跳脚那段算是一个情绪小高潮了；最后打戏颇英雄，不过是黑白的叶子；把莎士比亚缺的预言里的儿子线补上来了；片子stage感很强，像一个童话寓言，感觉会适合做成蒂姆伯顿式动画；hollow crown
黑白的摄影和灯光都很迷人，甚至比故事更让人聚焦。麦克多蒙德太抢戏了，似乎在整个戏之外。
好家伙这也太太太太太太太甜了吧！！！他俩真的比正片更甜蜜了
8/10
戳爷那种易碎感很适合本片，遭遇疾病的彷徨，无措
丹泽尔华盛顿与弗朗西斯麦克多蒙德演技大秀。文绉绉的台词，不做太大改编的故事，毫不遮掩的舞台剧模式，简洁有力的黑白舞台设计，都很好，但都让本片呈现出“有价值但多少有点无趣”的感受。
这部像是《爱你，维克多》的另一个视角，为戳爷加半星，为毕业晚会的那个倚靠再加半星，叙事节奏太缓慢了，配乐把原本冗长单调的故事切割得更加碎片化，小心那个看似木讷却一脸真诚的爆米花小子，千万别比他先动心，多关心那些真正爱你的人吧，男人来来去去，朋友永远在你身边。
这部电影除了戳爷的美貌，没觉得有什么可看的。另，男二怎么看怎么像个傻子，纯字面意思那种…
骁勇善战却战不过心魔…舞台剧味道的演绎，而Mrs MacDuff演技太差劲了…
剧场不可模拟特别在于观众对演出的自主选择，可以选择看这里，可以选择那样看，可以选择哪天看，选择都会影响呈现效果，但是电影不能，哪怕这样的也不行，这片子没哪里不好，只是像一个防腐过的、塞了棉花的、精致的，尸体标本。
很简单的糖水小片，没什么太深刻的东西但是很适合当前的我，只能说原来我现在经历的东西别人可能很早就经历过了，所以才能更早坚强起来、更早懂得如何面对生活。我想我也要努力变得更勇敢。ps戳爷和女主的脸真的真的太好看了！！！
视觉美学其实没那么突出 因为那些长焦特写明显要你看的就是演员表演 可是！这是电影啊！表演再精彩也是要和镜头互动的……而且正方形构图本来就不太能体现电影美学。。。。
多一星给戳希文的颜值
将莎翁的剧本具象化是什么样子？大概就是这个样子吧。布景的氛围、转场的过渡、调度的形态都是戏剧式的，演员的演绎自不必说，但就还是影像式的呈现。是一部极简的电影，简到与核心思想一样凝练。
