Title: Love is Strange<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sony Pictures Classics<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reviewed for Shockya by Harvey Karten. Data-based on Rotten Tomatoes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grade:\u00a0 B+<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director:\u00a0 Ira Sachs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screenplay:\u00a0 Ira Sachs, Mauricio Zacharias<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cast:\u00a0 Alfred Molina, John Lithgow, Marisa Tomei, Darren Burrows, Cheyenne Jackson, John Cullum<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screened at:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sony, NYC, 6\/23\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opens:\u00a0 August 22, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

The recession brought on by the bankers and Wall Street may be over, but tell that to the hundreds of thousands of newly minted college grads who must remain living with their parents because they can\u2019t find jobs.\u00a0 But what about the millions of people who have been laid off from their jobs, have gone through unemployment benefits, and are still looking?\u00a0 If they can\u2019t afford to remain in their apartments and houses, what do they do?\u00a0 If they\u2019re lucky enough to find friends and relatives who will take them in, that\u2019s fine, but there\u2019s a limit to how long these benefactors will put up with their guests.\u00a0 Then what?\u00a0 If the unemployed wind up on the streets, I don\u2019t see them.\u00a0 Where do they go?<\/p>\n

For one answer, we look at Ben (John Lithgow) and George (Alfred Molina), two aging gays who have been living together for decades.\u00a0 Ben is pensioned off at 71 while George teaches music at the local Catholic school.\u00a0 But when the two get married, the Church can no longer look the other way.\u00a0 George is fired by the priest running the school (John Cullum) and the couple can no longer afford to remain in their Manhattan co-op.\u00a0 They are lucky enough to sell their apartment quickly and to find people to take them in, but not both together.\u00a0 George goes to live with buddies, two gay New York cops Ted (Cheyenne Jackson) and Roberto (Manny Perez) while Ben pads down with nephew Elliot (Darren E. Burrows), Elliot\u2019s wife Kate (Marisa Tomei) and their son Joey (Charlie Tahan).\u00a0 Most of the action of the story takes place with the latter arrangement, stressingly friction between Ben and teen student Joey, who now lacks privacy and is relegated to the top bunk of his bed to make room for his uncle.<\/p>\n

If director Ira Sachs and his co-writer Mauricio Zacharias want to offer a dig at the Catholic Church, they do so with the understanding that George signed a document on taking the job that he not only pray and accept Jesus Christ as savior but that he abide by the regulations of his employer\u2014one of which being apparently that gay marriage is unacceptable.\u00a0 Instead, the forty-nine year old Tennessee-born Sachs, whose 2012 movie \u201cKeep the Lights On\u201d deals with a closeted lawyer and a documentary filmmaker, continues his interest thematically in gay couples while at the same time probing the effect that changed financial circumstances has on the people taking them in. It doesn\u2019t take long for Kate to become annoyed with Ben, who doesn\u2019t take the hint that she needs privacy to write her second novel and keeps up the patter. George seems OK with his gay-cop buddies, his only regrets being that the regular parties interfere with his sleep.<\/p>\n

Sachs is careful to take note of the feelings of the secondary characters.\u00a0 Joey parents begin to think that they teen son is gay when he spends too much time with his only friend, Vlad (Eric Tabach).\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 And Joey, being young, is entirely direct about his anger in having a new roommate thrust upon him.\u00a0 The emphasis throughout is on the emotions of all: Sachs easily finds the relationship of Ben and George to be authentic.\u00a0 They exude loneliness when they\u2019re apart, with George confessing that unlike his benefactors, he is not a party-loving person, preferring to bond with just one other person at a time.<\/p>\n

This is a slow-moving film not for the \u201cTransformers\u201d crowd or for those who require the ambience of a 3-D spectacular.\u00a0 The soundtrack, filled with works of Chopin and Beethoven, can be intrusive particularly in the opening scenes that are filled with wall-to-wall piano sonatas.\u00a0 John Lithgow, a giant of the Broadway stage, turns in a memorable performance.\u00a0 When his character and Molina\u2019s kiss you can see that the two must have worked well together throughout their rehearsal time.<\/p>\n
