Others say...
"Everything you'd expect from Bertolucci" Ah, NC-17. Possibly one of the dumber ratings out there. The concept is great! Tag movies, like this, that aren't made for kids but are for an adult audience, with a rating that keeps kids away. In principle this is great! In execution, it's been deeply flawed. Newspapers won't advertise films with this rating, most reviewers won't review them, and studios won't generally allow them to be released. It's to the credit of Fox that they allowed this rather nice little movie to be put out uncut (though one of the male leads isn't... ha! Penis joke!).
The story concerns an American in Paris, played by Michael "Drop-pants Gorgeous" Pitt. He's a student visiting there who falls in with a twin brother/sister pair who love movies as much as he does. The twins aren't quite incestual, but they're as close as anyone can get.
The movie is something of a love-note to cinema. You see clips from a lot of the greatest movies of the early days of film, and get to see the kids recreate several of the scenes for their own (occasionally erotic), amusement. The movie also expertly highlights Paris in the late 1960's, giving you a real feel for the time and place and for what was going on.
Where the film fails... well, it doesn't fail in any real big ways. I gave it four stars because it felt like something was missing, though I couldn't put my finger on what (part of it is that the two male leads have an obvious simmering attraction to each other that doesn't get acted upon in the movie. I understand it does in the book the film is based on). There wasn't anything bad or wrong about the movie, but something did seem to be missing.
One thing that isn't missing, though, is acres of bare flesh. If you're one of those who doesn't like to see close-ups of penises and vaginas, then this likely isn't the film for you.
I'd actually recommend this movie for just about anyone over the age of 13 or so, provided you're a parent who doesn't mind your kids seeing a movie with lots of sexuality but no violence. If you'd prefer it the other way around, perhaps you need to rethink your priorities.
I haven't seen many other Bertolucci films, so I can't really compare them to this one. I know I liked it, though, and it's worth owning on DVD.
"Perfect end" The ending is perfect, while I was watching, I was hoping that this film would not self-destruct with a cliched ending. I won't give it away, but Mathew's final interaction with Theo and Isabelle grabbed me with its sincerity and its reality, how no good thing seems to ever last. My favorite book about Kama Sutra is a perfect march with this movie Sex and the Perfect Lover: Tao, Tantra, and the Kama Sutra
"cool look at free thought" i really enjoyed the way free thought and expression was protrayed. interesting look of the time. great look at young carefree love.
"The NC-17 version is the ONLY version to watch!!" Ahh, watched this one again with two friends. Eva is glorious. Her performance! Her nakedness! Michael Pitt and the other gent's performances and nakedness are, as well, wonderful. The age of innocence. I love the playful exploring (sexually/psychologically) they do. The freedom. The myriad movie references. A salute to vintage film. Lovely. Dreamy. It will say what it wants to say to you. For more to that end, you can easily check out a thoughtful review by Roger Ebert. Worthy.
So, if you're looking for something with an edge, challenging sexual situations (yet with a purity), marvelous cinematography, music, and, of course, my favourite, MOOD--then you might do well to give this your undivided attention. Lovely. Beautiful.
Enjoy-enjoy!
"Pretty And Charming But Nothing To Say" I wouldn't say this movie is a bad film, but afterward you won't gain any food for thought from it. The two stars of the film are Eva Green's boobs. For the ladies, there's dongs hanging out quite a bit. Basically, the movie is about nudity, and three young characters trying to appear just likable and jolly enough to hide the fact they're in a softcore movie, with a few boundry pushing moments (that won't be that shocking to mature adults in this day and age I would think.) I'm not trying to be mean, but despite the great music, taboo subjects, and 60's counter-culture, everything about the plot is pretty much dull and cut'n'paste version of those things. Oh yeah, the characters are film buffs too, which really leads to cut'n'paste, as moments from their favorite films are sprinkled in the movie. So overall, I felt the whole story was ineffective, and the structure of the film ends up what I guess you could call "cute." The atmosphere and candid spirit of sexual adventure are what take a film that can't find anything to say and at least make it a comfortable trip. The question is, is that enough to make it a great movie, or is this a great cop-out that shouldn't think itself any greater than a skinemax late night movie? That's what I'm still wondering, and believe me I'd prefer the film had raised more substantial questions than that.

What our customer's say!
"Disturbing but Irresistable", This movie is very disturbing at many levels. Shot with a foreign film feel you're swept up in the love triangle. This isn't hardcore in the penetration sense, but definately not for kids! While Green isn't supermodel gorgeous, she is very beautiful and shows us every inch of her body. Beware, you may feel dirty for enjoying this movie!
"A Real Mind Blower and great semi Foregn Films", This film is a great film actually it goes eaven above that description if you don't mind films with some subtitles this movie will pull you in and not let go however is not appropriate for younger audiences.
"A strange and beautiful movie", The Dreamers is a very unusual movie, telling the story of a pair of French twins, Isabelle and Theo (Eva Green & Louis Garrel), who invite an American student, Matthew (Michael Pitt) to stay with them in their Paris apartment. Attracted to them first by a shared interest in the cinema, Matthew is soon drawn into the twins' incestuous relationship. To gain a full appreciation of the movie, including its historical background (set in the 1960's at the time of the student riots in Paris, and related to events in the French film industry at that time), I would recommend watching the excellent special features first. On the other hand, if you are just looking for a wonderful sensual experience, you'll get that, too, in some great nude scenes featuring the beautiful Mlle Green. Make sure you get the uncut version; it is definitely worth buying.
"The Dreamers", Very unusual, erotic, graphic film. Eva Green (current " Bond Girl"), is beautiful, sexy and plays an incredible role, making her character believable. Never liked Michael Pitt, but he did well in this.
"Eye Candy", I actually really enjoyed this movie. The plot is good, the scenes are vivid and realistic, and while the writing is a bit lacking, the acting is actually very good. Much of the story didn't really make a whole lot of sense, and the relationship between the brother and sister is really never fleshed out. But, oh, my, to spend much of the movie viewing Eva Green disrobed is, well, worth the price of the dvd.

"Art House....Keep Dreaming", The Dreamers is set in Paris during the student riots of the 60's. It follows two siblings, Theo and Isabelle, and an American foreign exchange student Matthew. The Parisian setting is the last bit of the social strife brought up in the movie until the end. The bulk of the movie is spent with the main characters exploring their sexuality. There are some watchable parts to the movie, but for the most part it was good only if you like gratuitous nudity. I know that it is labeled as an artsy movie and that is what Bertolucci is known for but it seems to be less of a thinking movie and more of an excuse for Eva Green to get naked. If that's what you're looking for then this movie is for you but if you are looking for a good period piece then I would look to somewhere else.
"Watch it alone, or when you're about to enjoy yourself ;)", This movie was amazing! It's a movie about French movies, and the plot is really nice and funny. I really enjoyed watching this movie. If you're gonna watch it, watch it by yourself, or with your partner. It's very VERY sexual. Loved it!
"Bertolucci's return to Paris isn't entirely successful", Matthew (Michael Pitt) is a young American student who is studying in Paris. He spends his days and nights at the Cinematheque where a large number of film buffs gather to watch the latest films from all over the world. Matthew notices two people always in the audience like himself but doesn't have the courage to introduce himself. One day during a protest in front of the theater which has now been shut down by the government he befriends the girl Isabelle (Eva Green) and her brother Theo (Louis Garrel). They have noticed him too and wonder about him. They invite him over to dinner to meet their folks and then when the folks leave in the morning for a month abroad they invite him to move in with them. Matthew is shocked by not only how eager they are to invite someone they don't even know to live with them but also by a discovery he made in the middle of the night: Theo and Isabelle lying nude in the same bed together. However the lure of Isabelle is too hard to resist so Matthew moves in with the incestuous siblings and the three spend their days debating movies and playing games with each other that start off in good fun but turn sexual. Matthew reveals that he is a pacifist and that he doesn't agree with the violence that is taking place outside of the apartment which greatly contrasts with Theo who believes in revolution and quotes Mao regularly. Soon with Theo as instigator and Isabelle a willing participant Matthew is drawn into their sexual games. This comprises a third of the movie and there is nothing wrong with the sex and nudity since Eva Green is not only very attractive but has an unbelievable body but the problem is that nothing of consequence happens until the film's last act. It is only when the riots outside literally shatters their revel in the apartment that the three must take sides and take action. Michael Pitt despite being an odd looking version of Leonardo DiCaprio is a very good actor and his final look at the siblings at the end of the film is devastating. Matthew tries to convince the siblings that they can't live like this playing these kind of games with each other that they need to let each other go in order to grow up. Isabelle doesn't provide any sort of resistance to either man Matthew or her brother she loves them both. Theo is the most volatile of the group as he quickly becomes tired of Matthew sleeping with Isabelle but is more angered by his pacifist views. The film is a nice tribute to youth and the sixties which is what Bertolucci was hoping to make but the actual consequence and the three characters having to deal with the political revolution taking place around them comes too late. The DVD has a commentary track by Bertolucci as well as the screenwriter and producer, a very good hour long making of shot by the BBC which shows the serious intentions of everyone making the film and how hard of a director Bertolucci was on his cast, and there is also a thirteen minute doc on the events of 68 which are recreated for the film. Lastly are two trailers and a music video of Michael Pitt and the amusingly named Twins of Evil doing a cover of Hey Joe which is used in the film. Its a good movie with some good performances and some fantastic nude scenes but the serious intentions to educate the audience about the political landscape of Paris in 68 is not handled well.
"One Of My New Favorites", This gloriously liberated movie is a tough one to describe, and if you've seen it, you know what I mean. And please do see it uncut. It's just ridiculous to do otherwise because you'll lose much more than a few nude scenes, you'll lose its fearless magic.
As the fortieth anniversary of France's 1968 riots arrives, Bernardo Bertolucci's impressive but oft overlooked 2003 opus, The Dreamers, is suddenly at the fore of films which commemorate an explosive moment in modern European history of which few Americans are even aware. It is as if it took half a decade for the world to catch up with this a work of startlingly immodest originality, and find a place for it. With its near constant full frontal nudity, male and female alike, its non-erotic, non-pornographic, extremely realistic depictions of sex, its physically beautiful cast, its homage to films of the cinematic Golden Age, The Dreamers is a motion picture as vaguely disturbing as it is freakishly endearing, as frankly sexual as it is slightly dopey, as limited in its ability to display its inner imaginings as it is uninhibited in its capacity to aim unabashedly high in its artistic ambitions.
Set in Paris in 1968, mostly in a slightly decayed yet opulent flat populated by parentally unchaperoned, semi-incestuous post-adolescent twins (Eva Green and Louis Garrel) and their American guest, The Dreamers quietly presents itself sans apologies, and is soon revealed as a long, faintly claustrophobic tale of sex and mind games among members of a love triangle: a misplaced American loner traveling in France, and two native-born siblings whose obvious ennui is raw material for the shockingly sick games they undertake with one another. While somehow innocent, even sylph-like, the twins, Theo and Isabelle, compel each other and their American guest, Matthew (Dawson's Creek's Michael Pitt) to carry out depraved yet apparently consequence-free acts upon themselves and each other. Citing shared radical politics and an ardent love of film (a medium whose sheer otherwordly unreality mirrors the twins' own lives), the trio bond as soul mates and play at fantasy inside their sheltered realm, even as outside riots rage and sudden poverty forces them to dine on other people's refuse. Nothing seems capable of infusing reality into the twins self-created little universe, though at times Matthew breaks free of the spell long enough to try, as when he asks Isabelle, long-since his lover, out on her first date.
There are better films out there but none exactly like this. It has to be seen to quite be believed.
"The Dreamers (Original Uncut NC-17 Version)", This movie is intriguing and beautifully artistic. This movie is a bit awkward at the same time, but if you like a movie that is disturbing and to the point where you can not look away at the same time then i recommend the movie. The only downside to the movie is the ending it leaves you wanting more.
