Ooh.

I hope all the interviews end up on YouTube or sites that don't restrict their clips.

We got a sneak peek before we got a trailer. It's usually the other way round

Btw, they've added a screening of the movie on Sunday.

For what it's worth, people have come into the press office raving about the film! It definitely seems like one of the big hits of the festival.

Thanks! Long but a good one

I wondered what they were going to do when DOMA was overturned. Sounds like it worked out for the better for them.

Thats great to hear! I hope we get more reviews today.

I liked #LifePartners but didn't love it. The pacing wasn't great but the performances especially the two leads were top notch.

So thrilled to be at the premiere of @LifePartnersMov. Hilarious, honest, and real. Congrats to all involved.

I love reading positive reactions.

A not so positive review here

Maybe this as the next title? "She [Sasha] is flawed, and that’s what I related to most.”

I don't get how he concluded that review. The movie was too inoffensive and didn't fulfill his lesbian fantasy in that Sasha didn't fall for her bestie? Wouldn't that be a cliche. Anyway, what a neckbeard.

I think the two comments on the review sum up what I think

LOL I'm wondering about the "rich subplot" in having the lesbian fall for her straight best friend only to be ultimately rejected..... and his calling a "rich subplot" despite it being done over and over again because it apparently hasn't happened w/ LGBT characters in film. Like what?

And I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but no, it's not inevitable that we must fall for our friends if they happen to be the sex or gender to which we're attracted.

Having Sasha fall for Paige? That if anything would be a cliché.
