Deeply moving “BPM” finds AIDS activists fighting and dancing through the epidemic.
2766d ago
Robin Campillo commemorates the legacy of direct-action group ACT UP with a movie that is tragic, urgent and full of cinematic life.
2766d ago
in spite of its historical specificity, BPM never feels like a bulletin from the past. Its immediacy comes in part from the brisk naturalism of the performances and the nimbleness and fluidity of the editing. The characters are so vivid, so real, so familiar that it’s impossible to think of their struggles — and in some cases their deaths — as unfolding in anything but the present tense.
2766d ago
Robin Campillo's outstanding AIDS activist drama melds the personal, the political and the erotic to heart-bursting effect.
2766d ago
BPM is a transcendent, beautiful drama.
2766d ago
The way this movie relates to the Debord title is in the fictionalized story it tells, about the Paris branch of the AIDS activism group ACT UP in the 1990s.
2766d ago
Director and co-writer Ron Campillo packs film with emotional power during the fierce life-or-death fight for life in 1990s Paris.
2766d ago
But nonetheless, the heart of ‘120 BPM’ beats with pulsating urgency, at a time when our world is desperately in need of stories about fighting together for a common cause.
2766d ago
There’s no question that Campillo fully endorses the tactics on display as he, too, was a part of a similar group back in the early 90s.
2766d ago
The political is more enthralling than the personal in the Cannes-winning AIDS-activism drama BPM.
2766d ago
Robin Campillo's BPM (Beats Per Minute) is at its most intimate when observing the exchange of war stories.
2766d ago
Robin Campillo follows 'Eastern Boys' by mining his past as a member of AIDS activist group ACT UP in 1990s Paris in this drama of politics, passion and loss.
2766d ago
A vitally erotic, moving ode to activism.
