Hellmant 'HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES': Three and a Half Stars (Out of Five)A sci-fi romcom directed by John Cameron Mitchell (who also helmed 'HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH' and 'SHORTBUS'), and written by Mitchell and Philippa Goslett. It's based on the short story (of the same name) by Neil Gaiman, and it tells the story of a young alien who separates from the group that she's touring the galaxy with, in order to get to know a young London punk better, named Enn. The film has received mixed reviews from critics, and it stars Alex Sharp, Elle Fanning, Nicole Kidman, Ruth Wilson and Matt Lucas. Enn (Sharp) is a young misfit in London who really wants to be a punk. While attending a punk party, apparently full of beautiful foreign exchange students, Enn meets Zan (Fanning). Zan is also a misfit, who desperately wants to leave the group she's traveling with and join Enn on his adventures. What Enn also later finds out, is that Zan is actually an alien (and so are all of her friends). Enn must then defend Zan from her alien people, with the help of his London punk friends. The movie is zany, crazy and somewhat original. It's also got a great punk rock/sci-fi comedy feel to it (which are all things I like). With all the potential though, it seems like it should have delivered so much more. It is funny, mildly romantic and amusing enough though. Plus it's free to rent on Amazon Prime right now, which is where I saw it.
alexicgeorge This film is punk, it's science-fiction, it's a romcom and a period piece. It's absolutely 100% bonkers and I love it. It felt like the director was on acid but it works really well, and is definitely worth a watch.You won't learn how to pick up a girl but you can listen to punk for 2 hours so who even cares?
BiiivAL The picture "How to talk to girls at parties" is a fascinating and fantastic story about love. The film unfolds in the suburbs of London in 1977. Three friends of high school punks after the next concert go in search of after-care and accidentally wander to an unusual party. There they observe small groups of people in amazing costumes of various colors. One of them is fond of sex Stella (Ruth Wilson), the other finds herself in a strange dance, and the main character Anne (Alex Sharp) falls in love with the beautiful Zen (El Fanning). At first, it seems to him that she is just a nuts American, but later he learns that she is an alien, like everyone else at a party. This is only an intriguing plot of the film, which can be called a fantastic romantic musical comedy impregnated with punk culture.This work was put by John Cameron Mitchell on the eponymous story of the now very popular English writer Neil Gaiman. American Mitchell - a provocative director, screenwriter, actor - known for theatrical and film audience for his musical, and later the film - "Hedwig and the ill-fated inch." Briton Gaiman, in turn, is more known for the novel "American Gods" and his recent serialization. In creating a beautiful visual style, Mitchell was helped by the cameraman Frank J. DeMarco, who shot "The hope will not fade away" with Robert Redford, as well as costume designer Sandy Powell, the owner of three Oscars, for her past work. Along with this, you can hear the frenzied music of the 70's in the picture, not so much hits as it usually happens, how many tracks of lesser known bands that even more immerses in that atmosphere.To watch this picture is a pleasure, if you like its creators like punk rock and Britain of that time. Animated psychedelic scenes complementary to what is happening look bright and mesmerizing. The cast that, to the stars already listed (and they can not be called in any other way, because Ruth Wilson and Alex Sharp are also theater actors with high awards) is complemented by the unfading Nicole Kidman in the image of the punk queen Bodice, looks very convincing. And the fascinating El Fanning, who is at least 18 years old, will make even those who perfectly speak with girls at parties party.
