An absolute masterpiece. No other words.
a masterpiece... you just can't put it out in words...
this beautiful gay movie changed my life
ever since i first saw Carol in theatres on opening day back in December 11, 2015 after missing my flight to mexico, cinema has gone downhill. i genuinely can't think of a more perfect movie than Carol. this is a film about seeing and being seen, looking and being watched, longing and being received. it's a film about women finding redemption in a world made small, unfriendly and inhospitable by stupid, egotistical, controlling men. every single look or touch shared between carol and therese is so deeply imbued with unspoken feeling and warmth.
this movie makes me shout let's go lesbians but it also makes me sad, angry, and sob. there's a million things i could say about this movie, this movie means so much to me... but specifically therese means so much to me because it's so true to my Life. SOME MOVIES CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOREVER. Carol makes me wanna set myself on fire but it also gives me hope.
when someone asks you what is art, you show this film
The only regret I have about watching this movie is that I wish I could see it for the first time again. Beautifully artistic, great casting, and a so-needed lesbian love story that is just that, a love story.
Masterpiece.
I hope we can watch this move every year with my lovely friend yagmur and make this a ritual. Also soundtracks were awesome for a person like me whom in love with soundtracks.
They end up together after all... this is an amazing movie! Wow!
Filme maravilhoso! Cate Blanchett está divina.
It is absolutely gorgeous, Cate and Kate are superb, the film is shot with exquisite taste, it deserves all the awards
Great adaptation of the book. Marvelous movie. I'm still amazed by it.
Absolutely breathtaking. A true lesson in screen chemistry and tension. The cinematography and score frame their relationship perfectly and all the changes from the book enhance the story tenfold. Cate Blanchett is a vision to behold here and I feel that as a viewer you can't help but fall for Carol just as Therese does.
Who wouldn't fall in love with Cate Blanchett? What a beautiful film.
I came upon this film, and I can confidently say that it was memorable. It was a wonderful story that delved into this encounter between two kindred souls, which blossomed into quite the affair. It took time to develop, with the 1950s serving as the perfect background to help already establish the atmosphere of this film. It had a sense of nostalgia, but it also was enclosed in some mystery. I greatly enjoyed watching this story unfold, and the ending really sealed the deal. All I can say is that I have great admiration for the crew who planned and directed this film, and for the actresses, I would like to express how marvelous it was.
this movie broke my heart
Beautifully executed and gorgeous throughout. First and foremost, a love story between two people.
I love that this film so clearly shows that freedom of self is paramount in life.
Carol: “There was a time when I would have done almost anything. I would have locked myself away to keep Rindy with me. What use am I to her, to us, if I'm living against my own grain?”
A big masterpiece, this year the Oscar goes to Cate.
So if a movie doesn´t have tons of explosions and hundreds of CGI shots it gets lower rates ? Otherwise I´m at a loss to explain why the average for this is so low (It was below 7 at the time of writing). Me, I could watch two hours of Cate Blanchett sitting on a chair. Beautifully made movie, enjoyed every second.
Better than I expected. There is something about Cate Blanchett, she's so classy to me. It held my attention, loved the music. And a happy ending, which is rare in a lesbian-centric movie
A perfect evocation of a time and place where love is restricted by the morals of society. Blanchett and Mara are wonderful.
Visually really stunning — the pictures are an hode to Saul Leiter — but story wise a bit longpasted. The acting is perfect though.
this movie is possibly gay
I liked this movie, well done, should have won an Oscar...period. #ShiftvW8
The Cate's smile...she flung out of space
A good movie with simple plot but great directing and acting perfomances.. 6.9/10
While the men are nothing more than uninspired archetypes, the leads keep the film humming at a quiet and subtle pace.
Cate Blanchett. No other words needed.
Main characters don't have great chemistry. And the Sims 4 music was very annoying, but overall the movie wasn't that bad.
In Germany this is rated for 6 year old kids. Thankfully in the medieval US this is rated R to protect everyone from the gay invaders.
الستة للتصوير ! و جزء من تمثيل كيت الباقي ماحبيته
Carol is a romantic drama that tries to get by on the talent of its two lead actresses alone, and it almost works. The story follows a divorcée who befriends a department store clerk while Christmas shopping, and asks her to join her on a holiday road trip. Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara give strong performances. However, there’s something disturbing about their characters’ relationship; as Blanchett comes off as rather predatory and manipulative. Additionally, the plot doesn’t really go anywhere and the character development is poor. But the production values, costumes, set designs, cinematography, and score, are exceptionally well-done; creating an atmospheric and picturesque vision of the 1950s. Yet Carol is ultimately an unsatisfying film that’s pretty pointless.
What a snooze fest my god
i dont remember the last time ive watched a movie directed in a so delicated way. a truly masterpiece
I found Harge's character quite interesting. I haven't read the book but from what I could gather from the movie, Harge is not against same sex relationships or he doesn't feel anything wrong with them. it's just that he loves his wife very much and it's unacceptable to him that she is leaving him for someone else. It almost felt like a love triangle where no one is at fault.
sensational in every aspect .
well done Cate and Rooney. such a beautiful movie
