The Lover
A poor French teenage girl engages in an illicit affair with a wealthy Chinese heir in 1920s Saigon. For the first time in her young life she has control, and she wields it deftly over her besotted lover throughout a series of clandestine meetings and torrid encounters.
Where to watch
ValorScore's verdict
O Amante é um drama de época atmosférico e visualmente apurado que explora a paixão proibida e as tensões sociais na Indochina colonial. Contudo, devido ao conteúdo fortemente erótico e às frequentes cenas explícitas de nudez e sexo, a obra é inteiramente inadequada para o público familiar e jovem.
Opinion with evidence — not a verdict.
