Just asking because on paper, the premise looks... not that interesting?
A woman enters a relationship with a "younger" man. Bosworth is 30 and the guy is 22 sooo... where's the story?

Its actually beautiful! Like the trailer says it's about ruined love and liberation and perhaps following your bliss. The ending is surprising. As a female I found the whole film very inspiring and touching. The performances were great! I have thought about it a lot since I watched it.
shareSo you have no problem about the way Jane confronted her husband as if adultery was really his fault. I have no idea why the husband is so clueless when she was out for entire night and gave a reply she was just walking. The writer needs to be fired. The scenery and the score was very beautiful indeed. But the husband who doesn't seem to have a clue and seems apologetic when he found out Kate was cheating makes it seems like perfect doormat for woman.
sharethe initial premise reminded me of a relationship i was in. my friend and i had an affair while she was engaged with her fiance. that's about the only thing we had in common with this movie. the kid is pretty stupid (and not a great actor), and i didn't see the reason why she found him attractive, other than his looks. seriously, the kid makes me wish he was punched in the neck. he's that irritating. and there's no chemistry between them.
shareit was awful, would have been good if it was a short movie on 15 minutes or something like that...
shareAnd While We Were Here oversold its premise of life being a worthy gift we all must take advantage of. After all it is not an original concept to films and And While We Were Here began to feel very cliche as a result.
"I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not".
Pretty bad.
Basically this woman who is afforded a really nice lifestyle because of her husbands work resents her husband because of his work and takes ups with this kid with no job, because he's carefree.
First world problems.
Actually you're mistaken. She can't have children which has caused a rift between the two. He wants for something he can never have, and she can't produce what he wants. This disconnect is what you're seeing. Yes, he may provide well for her, but they are both unhappy. He is putting all his energy into his work to compensate while she looks for attention. There is no resentment toward his work.
And when it comes down to it, just about everything is a first world problem aside from war, death, and famine. So, it's a pretty lame, cliche statement.
Yes. I only wish that her infertility troubles had been confronted earlier in the film. I think that would've helped the film along a lot and help to explain the animosity and latent hostility the husband and wife had for one another.
sharePeople who enjoy the Linklater trilogy will enjoy it. It's a film about a deteriorating relationship. It's deteriorating due to something beyond their control and because they can't communicate about it. It's a really beautiful movie, especially if you appreciate cinematography and score.

The guy is 19 and she's maybe ten years older. This wasn't really an issue. He's over the top and basically she's got first world problems.
Kate Bosworth has gotten too skinny and is not aging well though. She doesn't look nearly as good and healthy as she did in earlier films.

Yeah, I agree. Kate Bosworth is much too thin and it's neither appealing nor attractive. She has just become scary bony.
shareAbsolutely awful. Terrible characters, no redeeming qualities whatsoever about this disaster of a film. Definitely one to avoid!
