Not so deep

Lovelace (2013)

Directed by Rob Epstein & Jeffrey Friedman this biopic stars Amanda Seyfried, Peter Sarsgaard, Hank Azaria and Sharon Stone. We follow the true story of the young woman who stared in the porn film that was everywhere in the 1970s in America.

What I really liked about this film was how it almost plays the same story twice, first the one the public initially saw and then the much darker private story. While there maybe some disagreement over accuracy of parts of Lovelace's own accounts it is a good watch even if not as in depth as I would have liked. Sharon Stone is unrecognisable in her role and watching the film I had no idea she was in it.


3/5
