What a waste of my time!!!

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Un Amor (A Love) explores the infatuation (to different degrees) of two teenage boys with a teenage girl, all living in a sleepy provincial town in Argentina, and the consequences thirty years later. Personally, I find Lalo's reaction to Lisa's sudden departure somewhat out of proportion, but then there might be a bit of self deception in the way Lalo appraises his post-Lisa life. The film is somewhat slow and wordy at times but interest never flags.Bruno is very well played by the ubiquitous Diego Peretti; Luis Ziembrowsky (Lalo) and Elena Roger (Lisa) are at the same level. Paula Hernández's direction (she also co-wrote the script) is low key and keeps sentimentality in check. The cinematography by Guillermo Nieto conveys perfectly the feeling of a small river town.Hernández's three feature movies Herencia (Inheritance, 2006), Lluvia (Rain, 2008) and Un Amor (2011) are well worth watching. Un Amor has made it to the rental services. Herencia (but not Lluvia) is available in DVD Region 1 without subtitles.
