Saving the Valentine’s Day BEST for Last: Check Out New Film “What Love Looks Like”!

While Valentine’s Day is over, that doesn’t mean love stops and romantic movies aren’t worth watching. After all, how many times have you watched ” To Catch a Thief”, “Casablanca” or “The Thomas Crown Affair”?  Me– too many times to count!
Recently, I was recently introduced to this new independent film from Alex Magana, “What Love Looks Like”.

“What Love Looks Like” is a heartfelt movie that delves into the lives of singles and couples in different stages of love. The good, the bad, and the funny. And it follows the axiom that love sometimes happens when you least expect it.

 

Follows the lives of five couples and the journey each goes through to find love.

Written & directed by Alex Magana and it’s an INDIE RIGHTS MOVIE!

Nathan Kohnen as ‘Sam’

Synopsis

“What Love Looks Like” is five interwoven stories of modern love.
–Nicole (Kate Durocher) is a vibrant young beauty stuck in a dead-end relationship with Owen (Josh Gilmer), a man who’s more in love with his phone than he is with her.
–Calvin (Connor Wilkins) has a disastrous Tinder-fueled one night stand with Summer (Jamie Shelnitz) only to reconnect with her on an anonymous dating site soon after.
–Finn (Kyle Meck) is crazy about the lovely Penelope (Taylor Alexa Frank)…only the timing couldn’t be worse.
–Theodore (Jack Menzies) is a painfully awkward young man who’s smitten with equally shy Bailey (Ana Ming Bostwick Singer).
–Finally, Sam (Nathan Kohnen) is still reeling from the death of his wife when he meets Evie (Ashley Rose McKenna), who just may be the girl to reawaken his heart if he can let his past go.

 MY Review:

I find this movie very interesting. I like the casting. I find the actors are engaging and feel real in the various events in the movie. It has a slight resemblance to an older movie I watch probably once a year that doesn’t have the same outcome but has some similarities between the two movies– if only because it’s an ensemble cast with a thread about love and loss.

I like the authenticity of the acting. After all, most of us have been through at least  3 of these situations that Alex Magana has laid out It’s an interesting movie that reminds me of various  “romance” movies including  Sideways (though the plot is different).

Magana’s direction is solid and the pacing is darn near perfect. I really liked this movie the longer I watched it. Consider me a romantic sucker (maybe), but I like this movie.  I can see me watching it whenever I need a boost of romanticism.
