“Five months ago, I had no idea who Xavier Dolan was. Now, after watching u0026#39;Mommyu0026#39;, I have no hesitation in saying that heu0026#39;s one of most talented artists to have come into prominence in the past few years.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhat director and writer Xavier Dolan, who is 25, achieves with u0026#39;Mommyu0026#39; is quite spectacular. Not only does he manage to impress with top-notch directorial skills and an impressive and complex understanding of human relationships, but he has successfully accomplished the ultimate goal of a filmmaker: transmitting emotions — pure, unaltered feelings.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI was never a supporter of the idea of re-watching films; I thought that by re-watching a movie, you would lose precious time that could have been used to watch a potentially even better film. However, u0026#39;Mommyu0026#39; has completely destroyed this concept for me. Leaving the cinema room, I had a sense of restlessness that went away only after watching it for the second time. And guess what? The feelings the film transmitted remained as fresh and relevant as they were the first time.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere are a myriad of aspects that are worth discussing when referring to this film: the fabulous actors, the impressive use of music, the clever use of colors, the numerous jaw-dropping cinematography-related details and the variety of raw feelings u0026#39;Mommyu0026#39; explores. But, by analyzing each of these aspects in detail, you may risk to experience a film whose surprises will not be as poignant as they would be by discovering them yourself.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI can safely say that u0026#39;Mommyu0026#39; left an indelible mark on me. Its honesty, the beauty it exudes and its life-affirming tone make for an enthralling chef du0026#39;oeuvre that will undoubtedly have a certain effect on whoever decides to watch it. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTo sum up, u0026#39;Mommyu0026#39; manages to do what an important piece of art does: communicate authentic feelings. And, for this, I am grateful. Bravo, Dolan!”
