Like Crazy

Writer and director Drake Doremus got his breakthrough with honest film about first love. A British girl falls in love with an American boy but their relationship is tested by the US immigration that turns their lives upside down. Doremus hits all the right notes up till the end about ecstasy and agony of love with intelligent writing and terrific performances. The ending seems forced somewhat that will divide the audiences. Felicity Jones and Anton Yelchin star as the lovers with pitch-perfect performances that's the heart of the film. Jennifer Lawrence and Charlie Bewley provide solid support the alternatives. 1001 Films' coverage of upcoming releases.
