LOVE IS STRANGE
7/10
A very nicely paced film starring John Lithgow and Anthony Molina, about two aging gay men in New York. They've been together for decades, but late in life decide to get married. Despite the laws being liberal, it unfortunately doesn't follow at the workplace, and this film tracks their relationship as a result. However, it's not even so much about that, but a film about family, relationships and love, with several story lines and snapshots showing us the life of a group of fairly everyday people. I liked that there wasn't a big collection of neatly tied points to end this film, and that bar a couple of particular circumstances this story really could have just about been about any old married couple and their family.
