Watch Disobedience For Free

The Worst Film Ever

An action-packed slog

A lot of fun.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

This film deeply moved me. It's so common to watch films that make perfect sense. Where the narrative is wrapped at intervals with chunks of story that aim at a definitive plot ending. Here if felt like I was inside the movie, watching the lives of these 3 people unfold. So much to be told, so much to be resolved, but only silence and the acts of a brave woman. Bravo.

Thank you Sebastian for making this film! Thank you for taking time to properly cast the 2 main ingredients to this masterpiece! Both Rachel's are flawless and are very moving in each of their roles.You can appreciate the sensitivity of the Jewish Orthodox community and their unwavering adherence to their beliefs and traditions! Although they may be staunch on their views, one can appreciate the way they live their lives, even if you don't agree with them at all.The love story is what captivated me. These two Rachel's are completely helpless in their fight to stay away from each other and their true love for one another. You can feel the love tension immediately when they are around one another.Coming from an extremely strict Pentecostal background and being gay, this film speaks worlds to me. This is very similar to when my wife and I first got together and had to hide our love for years from our family, mine especially. This is a must see, must own, and must talk about film.

Usually this type of movies goes really wrong. But "Disobedience" has overcame this difficult subject with the absolute stimulation and yet sensitive/rational directing choice of keeping it real. They managed to keep it "down to earth" so to speak. And the devotion of the two amazing actresses, Rachel Weisz and Rachel Mcadams absolutely lead this movie to success. Every scene was totally real, lively and believable. (And very very hooot!) Beautiful music, a little humor here and there. Well made, BRAVO!

Rachel Weisz stars as a Rabbi's daughter returning to an Orthodox Jewish community that's shunned her because she didn't want to adopt their ways. This is a common problem in Orthodox communities when people choose a different belief system than the one they were raised with. It presents a myriad of challenges to navigate and this film portrays it with the utmost delicacy.The film has a brilliant pseudo-horror vibe with the voyeuristic looks that her disapproving peers inflict upon her with as she sits with them at dinner or walks through the streets alongside them. The film is advertised as a film about a lesbian relationship, but it's really a film about free will because being in a pre-marital sexual relationship, dating a secular jew, even having secular Jews in your friend circle or getting an education all lead to the same end result of shunning anyways. Perhaps it's my experience in this type of community, but the film is beautiful, spot-on, tense, sexy , and treats each of the three leads (Rachel McAdams and Allesandro Nivola) and their character arcs with a great sense of resepct.
