1 - 8 (sorted by date; Australian critics are listed first)
A lovely, somewhat messy movie about lovely, messy young lives.

Top CriticThe conventions of contemporary youth culture and cinema could both use a change of sheets.
09/02/09
Despite some missteps (a parachute metaphor is particularly belabored), the film has an intoxicating quality.
09/01/09
Exudes an exuberant energy as Dos Santos keeps coming up with different visual styles and sounds, with a terrific soundtrack, to signal the longing for connection.
08/25/09
Unmade Beds, with its occasionally twee chronicling of pogoing in funny hats and heart-to-hearts between NSA lovers, portrays its seekers as planets aspiring to bubblehood, or at least one tandem leap into the void.

A minimalist drama about two newcomers to London searching for love in all the wrong places.

Has a lively, romantic spirit that recalls the playfulness and spontaneity of the French New Wave.
