In spite of the premise that reads more like a "Penthouse" letter, Brooks' controversial romance is much more heart felt and complex in examining both of its characters and their intentions toward one another...

If you're looking for a bare-bones story about girl-on-woman love that goes precisely where you're expecting it to go, you could do worse.

almost criminal in its lack of a third act.

Jul 30, 2012Eh. The whole thing was pretty boring. I just felt like it was a whole lot of nothing.Sarah P Super Reviewer

May 31, 2011A moralistic, unlikely ending spoils this otherwise touching story, which features a non-pornographic lezzie love scene so hot that I my allegedly "straight" girlfriends admitted being turned-on.<br/><br/><br/>SPOILER---SPOILER---SPOILER---SPOILER:<br/><br/>Loving Annabelle is the third remake of Mädchen in Uniformwas (1933), and as is my understanding, each remake misses the point of the original a little bit more. Loving Annabelle is a tad sappy and maudlin, and the ending would be unlikely in real life. There is no way Annabelle and Simone would be stupid enough to allow themselves to be caught, and given how the Church so adamantly protects its priests there is simply no way that Mother Immaculata would turn Simone in to the authorities. <br/><br/>Ridiculous. <br/><br/>The ending is unnecessarily melodramatic and follows a pattern in US mass produced culture whereby characters who break taboos must be punished to prove the filmmakers don't advocate their behavior, even though the entire vehicle up to that point is usually a strong justification for breaking the taboo.Pamela D Super Reviewer

Jul 24, 2010If you like movies that feature relationships, Loving Annabelle fits the bill. Of course the problem is that no matter how much anyone is in love, it is just not possible to act on your feelings if you are the teacher, and the object of your affections is your student. Many of the other reviews complain about the 'abrupt' ending, but it suits the movie.Red L Super Reviewer

Jun 16, 2010This is a pretty good film and is definitely worth your time. The romance between teacher and student unfolds in generous broad strokes of passion until the quite heartbreaking end.Anastasia B Super Reviewer
