From the well-known director Eleanor Coppola (Paris Can Wait, Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker’s Apocalypse), LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE tells three stories that explore love, commitment, and loyalty between couples and friends. In the film’s first story TWO FOR DINNER, a married couple (Joanne Whalley and Chris Messina) find an unconventional way to transcend long distance through technology, but discover they were farther apart than they knew. In SAILING LESSON, a long-married couple (Kathy Baker and Marshall Bell) tries to reignite their honeymoon-phase heat through a spontaneous sailing trip… and unexpected events arise. And in LATE LUNCH, a young woman (Maya Kazan) who recently lost her mother gathers together a group of her mother’s friends (including Cybill Shepherd, Rosanna Arquette, and Rita Wilson) to share memories. Surprising revelations ensue.
Definitely, this film makes it memorable because talks about love in different forms so the viewer might make it predictable but at the end is unsatisfactory. Love usually refers to an experience one person feels for another. Love often involves caring for, or identifying with, a person or thing but here all elements are not clear for most of the characters. A film worth to see in order to think about what is love?
Throughout all three stories, Coppola uses a light touch and naturalistic ease to find the heart of the deepest friendships and romances.
LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE was produced by Anahid Nazarian (Tetro, Youth Without Youth), and is an American Zoetrope production. It premiered at the 2020 Deauville Film Festival and was also an official 2020 Tribeca Film Festival selection.
Blue Fox Entertainment will release LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE on VOD Tuesday, December 14.
