Watch Weekend For Free

i must have seen a different film!!

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

When we think of LGBT cinema, we usually think of men in drag, or stories of the community collectively overcoming hardship. Andrew Haigh's "Weekend" is a different one. While it does focus on the characters' sexual orientation, it's more about the subtlety in the characters' lives and how they seek fulfillment. The movie makes sure to create complex, relatable characters, so that we can always feel for them. It's not the greatest movie ever made, but one that prompts the viewer to think deeply about the characters, empathizing with them.I recommend it.

What a lovely work of film. A very beautiful, very real and very bittersweet story - telling of the pains and passions of love that comes to us so unexpectedly and then, ultimately, leaves us. An all too familiar feeling for a yearning heart. From stunning cinematography to a painfully relate-able story - this film will always allow for it's viewers to access the nature of it's being and it's beauty. For every human understand what it is to yearn for something so much, that when it's gone, we feel empty. That, is film. Weekend is a great testament to the vision and the work of a talented cast and crew. I give this film my highest recommendation and feel that it's simplicity is it's genius. Thank you, Mr. Haigh.

I wasn't much into the movie for the most part, I think I might expected something more direct from it, but the love we see from the Russel-Glen (two charismatic actors) relationship is something to digest and understand by watching them, it's not in the words they say ; it's all a matter of attitudes, eye contacts, gestures, hesitations… We witness the inception of love between two people, the first and sometimes awkward contacts, extreme and paradoxical proximity with a human being you didn't know a day before - to an always bettering connivance as the film goes by. The acting is very good, with a feeling of complete honesty from one character to another, and at moments it almost feels like the camera is hidden, discreetly filming the young and nascent love. All in all though, maybe because it's very intimate (here it might even be a cons), the movie isn't always captivating. The ending though is very touching, not to cheesy and sugary, and really makes the film even more worth watching.

The story line only covers two days and nights. The two main fellas put away a lot of beer, shots, pot, and nose candy! They quickly discover their true character individually and in each other through lengthy conversation and the opening of their souls. Glen is aggressive and unafraid of confrontation and Russell is passive and neutral toward life. These two discover a common bond through the haze of booze and a friendship/love is created. Then reality checks in!This is a wonderful indie film for people who want acting and a feeling of empathy for the main characters. You cannot help feeling sorry for Russell and his plight in just existing. Glen is his own person and will follow his own path with many Russell's along the way.A great piece of movie making - but it has a bit of trouble getting of the ground in the beginning. Stick with it because the art & entertainment value in it is a great payoff!
