I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Quite frankly, I think this movie was excellently well done. Although I thought bad girl Annabelle had a crush on Collins as Annabelle seemed so caring when the poor porcupine died and the fact Collins is like a little sweet girl to fall in love with! However Annabelle put her attention too much on Simone but she had like a boyfriend in which she shouldve dumped him if she was going to be attracted to girls. I mean its not easy to let it out and the thoughts of accepting yourself but no one should live with dread. Say what you gotta say to that person, that way you guys would live happier instead of thinking back of regret! This movie gave us that message of belief and love to all of us!

The more times I saw the movie the less impressed I was. The ending is very unlikely; seeing as Catholic schools would have just covered that up. However the relationship is nicely represented. For filming in three weeks this movie is well made. I enjoy the story this film is telling, two women being attracted to one another. The way they kept building up the chemistry and desire was well thought out. The story was interesting enough that I didn't predict the end or get bored with with the film. Erin Kelly did a fabulous job and so did the actresses playing her room mates. Diana Gaidry was alright at the role but could have used more character development.

Well, I'm usually not the one to write reviews, but for this particular movie, I felt, I just had to put my opinion into words.My overall impression is that it's like a strictly religious Christian writing a gay story: the moment they find each other, they met instant retribution.I watched "Loving Annabelle", because of the lesbian relationship the story revolves around, and I was mostly disappointed with it. First, apart from both main characters being female, the story has nothing to do with lesbian relationships. It could have been told with Simone being a man, and it wouldn't change anything. It's especially surprising, given the number of lesbian/gay awards this movie got. As long as they are teacher and the student the story would be the same.I tried finding some character development in there, but what I found instead, that there are no real characters. Except for Simone and Annabelle, all the characters are but a single role, a single stereotype, without any story of their own. Annabelle's friend never do anything but does their simple role, one plays the weak kid, one the normal and one is the traitor. No emotions, no original thoughts, they have nothing. The main characters are better, but even them lack any character development. Annabelle tries to seduce Simone multiple times, and both of their reactions are remain the same, except that in the end Simone gives in. All the relationships are determined by the "role" of the character, and they doesn't even felt real, except for the one between Annabelle and Simone.Now let's talk about the most disappointing part, I'm talking about the ending, of course. This movie consist of a beginning, an overly long first part, where Annabelle tries to seduce Simone, and an ending. I mentioned the first part so where is the second one? That's a good question, and I'd like to know the answer as well. One thing is sure, it's not in the movie. Either the creators thought it was more "artistic" that way, or they had other problems, but this ending simply does not close the story properly, it's only like a commercial break, and the story was left unfinished forever.But even this miserable ending is unreal, amateur, and full of holes. Let's start with the scene where Simone and Annabelle just got caught by the headmaster. Apparently they don't lock the doors here, and apparently the headmaster can enter any teacher's room, without even knocking. Ever heard of privacy? Well, they got caught. Not when having sex, but in the middle of changing. While that might be enough to get a divorce, changing clothes is hardly a criminal act, and if that's so, why is the police there? Where is the evidence against her? And we know, that the headmaster lady is a relative of Simone, so what kind of person sends her relative to jail, without even hearing her out? And even if they were to caught in the middle of the act, and photographed too, Annabelle's parents are still big shot politicians, who would be happy to bail out Simone, if they can prevent a scandal in exchange.Soooooo... I give 5/10 to this movie, and I give those points solely because of scenes, where the girls making out, and the other erotic one. Noting else in it deserves anything.

This week I've been watching movies about lesbian stories and I liked each one I saw, and well, Loving Anabelle wasn't the exception, but I didn't like it as much at the others. It's a shame to me to say that maybe the reason I didn't like this movie was for the age difference. I don't have nothing against that, and at the end I liked how their relationship was, but it was weird to me from the start. And I think that the coincidence that they both, Simone and Anabelle, had had another romance with a woman before was strange, but it was OK because at last they understood each other. But overall, I liked the movie, i recommend it and I don't think is a waste of time. I didn't like so much the end, I mean, what happened next?? maybe I can imagine or guess, but I would've loved to see what happened with their lives, whether it was a happy or sad end.Besides, it shows a real school-life, tell life of a student in love with a teacher, and even thought I've never been in a situation like that, I know people who has, and I guess there are plenty persons who have been through that.
