lamont-hard Review of The New Girlfriend

The New Girlfriend (2014)

Great Film, But Be Ready To Fill In The Blanks.

[7/10 · 25 April 2024]

The transformation of a guy trapped inside his home that wanted to explore life as a woman outside of it. Aided by his deceased wife's best friend's sincere help. The film in scene after scene stays vague in its messaging. Like when Clair's husband starts bonding with the baby Lucy was Clair jealous. We never get the relationship or so called love affair between the teens and young adults of Clair and Laura. It seemed like Clair had a crush on Laura but Laura never really showed much affection other than great friendship between them. That Clair might be lesbian seemed vague as it appeared to me that she had a crush on Laura and not women in general. The ending one can interpret in whatever you come up with, It just might fit. The whole movie consistently states Clair will look after Lucie and David. In the film Gellis says he and Clair wanted a family and that was what I assumed they were doing as we see Clair being pregnant and her and virginia holding hands girlfriends picking up Lucy from school.
