Watch Sappho For Free

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

This is almost the exact storyline of Ernest Hemingway's The Garden of Eden. The acting in the movie Ernest Hemingway's Garden of Eden (2008) was better, though there were more girl/girl scenes in this one.I thought this was the better story, but the acting was strange. The lead actor in"Sappho" was easily the best. If the rest of the cast had been taken from Garden of Eden and put into this movie perhaps it would get 4 or 5 stars.Like I said, the story could have been good, but the acting was mediocre and unlike Sappho and Phil, the chemistry between Helene and Phil was non-existent. This is more of a movie you would watch just to look at all the beauty in it. The actors, Avalon Barrie, the guy who played Phil, and the scenery--the island and all the cinematography.Not really a fan of the crazy lesbian commits suicide in a jealous rage story. It's a bit overused, but at least some other movies act it out better.If you're going to watch this movie, you must also watch "Ernest Hemingway's Garden of Eden" to laugh at the parallels and even verbatim quotes.

Sappho really is like a modern Greek tragedy - it's set on a Greek island, and it uses all the conventions of that ancient form of drama - it all happens in one place, in one month, with only one line of action, and the characters are carried forward by fate towards an end that they can't avoid.And it works! It seems new and fresh and interesting in this age when all movies look the same. It's a real tearjerker.For movie buffs who wonder where the movie was made, it was made in Crimea on the Black Sea. The main location is the Vorontsov Palace. Lots of movies have been made in Crimea, but this is perhaps the most beautiful of them all - the locations and the photography are superb!!!

A strange lyrical film, much like the ancient poetess's Sappho's own poetry. It has no violence, no car chases, no gunfights, and yet it manages to be enthralling and unpredictable.I won't tell the story, except that it's about a boy and a girl who wants to be a boy and a girl, and it all gets complicated.Here in Ukraine it was a big commercial success - the biggest in the history of our film industry - and also there was a very big reaction against this movie from the church and anti-gays. It seems there are two reactions to this film, either you love it, or you hate it. You can see that from the reactions here too.The acting lets the movie down a little bit, but only a little.

Horrible film. I would not recommend this to anyone. While a film is being developed its creators should be asking themselves "So what? Who cares?" and they should be able to answer that question in regards to their movie. At the end of this I felt myself asking "So what? Who cares?" Which is incredibly bad.This film suffers from terrible acting, directing and writing, and its seemingly only redeeming qualities are it locations and occasionally good cinematography.Honestly, do not bother with this film. It's a glorified soft core porn, and the porn isn't even very good.
