A new documentary
Love, Etc. is a new documentary that follows five couples for one year in New York City: old, young, gay, straight, falling in love, getting married, having babies, breaking up. The film showed the complexities of romantic love--not just the happy stuff of Disney movies. I watched it this week and adored it. It was funny, heartbreaking and beautiful. Here's the trailer...
What do you think, my darlings? Would you want to see it? (Here are show times.)

Thanks so much for sharing the trailer! That looks like a show that I would love to watch. I am a bit of a reality show junkie:) It will be interesting to see how different people handle situations in relationships. Have a wonderful Thursday!

This looks great! I love hearing other people's stories.
Oh, goosebumps, just from the trailer!
Bahahaha the comment about the three rings was great! :-D But seriously, this was a very sweet trailer. I hope I'll get to see the film online somewhere as I doubt it will come to the big screen in Germany.
Oh, and I especially loved the old couple: "Please! Don't be annoying!" ^^

It looks charming and heartbreaking all at one. But, i suppose that's what love is essentially... charming and heartbreaking all at once.
Seeing little old people in love just kills me. 4 8 years...48 minutes...48 seconds. ahh, melts my heart! Who wouldn't want love like that?
It looks amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing. Definitely going to catch this one. =)
Oh yes, would love to see! Thanks for sharing!
The preview alone almots made me tear up.. I have to watch this!
would love to watch it, but guess i would have to go to LA or san diego (no show times in canada :( ). Love all things dealing with NY. thanks for the hint.
Looks very interesting! I will have to check it out!
Such a great find! I definitely want to check this one out.
Oh, this looks lovely - thanks so much!

OK, I am totally bawling. The comment about, "48 seconds..." So incredibly sweet. When is it coming to Salt Lake?
i love the old couple more than i can say!
i cant wait to see it!! i almost cry just by watching the trailer... thanks!
i think they wont be showing it in Houston,TX .. :'(
I love this; what powerful stories about love. I will definitely be checking it out! Thank you!
Ooh, I love documentaries, and Love Etc. looks particularly good! It reminds me a bit of a documentary a friend of mine put out a few years ago, although it followed folks in Chicago that were on the dating scene...it's called Breakup Date (it's a little...darker?!)
Cheers,

kate, i know!!! so, so sweet. and hopefully it will come to other cities soon; i think they're trying to grow the buzz and then expand. and then it will come to netflix/amazon soon, fingers crossed!
craftysunday, that sounds great!!
just shared this on fb--looks wonderful! (and it's coming to LA next week:)
Looks awesome! Definitely want to see it. Sadly, it'll probably be ten years before it comes to Portland!
wow, thank you so much for sharing this, looking at show times at Sunshine now!
Oh, I've never heard of it but now I can't wait to see it!
Oh no, I don't have the cable:-s. I hope they will show it on Hulu, or even Netflix later! That looks like an awesome show.
ok i cried just watching this preview...
Can't wait for it to come to the west coast. Seems like we could all learn from the older couple. :)
I hope this comes out in the UK! I love documentaries like this - where you follow different people with a common theme like 'Babies'. I can tell that every scene with that old couple is going to make me tear up!
This is one documentary that screams: "I wish I made this" I can't wait to watch it. My heart is already crying from just watching the trailer ;)
cute, I would see this! Sort of when harry met sally inspired with the couple interviews...
Aah, those real life transition times, seem so devastating and fascinating, both. And, the waiting for the unfold, keeps on hold.
Wild and wondrous, really.
Cheers!

Not a great review, unfortunately!
oh my gosh, that look soooo good! i'll have to keep an eye out for it!
Aww, thanks so much for sharing this. I'm such a sap and love things like this!
that looks so.good. hopefully it'll come to my city!
Definitely want to see this. It looks heartbreaking and beautiful.
Would love to see it! I wonder if there is any chance it would make it's way to little Columbus, Ohio. I may just have to wait until is comes out on DVD otherwise.
Looks wonderful! I absolutely cannot wait to see it! Thanks for sharing...

must see list..
ps, I think I get all my 'must see' movies from you! keep it up!
I would love this. totally gotta see it.
I must see this! I love it just from the trailer.
I totally teared up when the older man says he's been married 48 years, but it feels like 48 minutes, 48 seconds. shucks, who *doesn't* want to grow up to be one of those couples? =)
WOW! I can't wait to see this!
I really wish I could see it. Shame Seattle isn't on the list of viewings :(
looks like seeing it isn't an option in Denver! sad day. real ove is fascinating....real (true) love and real (realistic) love ...both. :-)
This movie came to a film festival in Montana last fall I can personally vouch that it is excellent!! My only complaint is that you are left wanting more when its over!

I wish I was watching this RIGHT NOW! But my husband's out with the boys and I'm stuck home with the sleeping baby. Boo.
WOW, It gave me goose pimples just to watch the trailer, I wish I could watch the whole documentary.
oh man, i just sobbed while watching this. definitely a must-see. thanks for sharing.
I really really (REALLY) hope I get to see this where I live!
I would love to see this! As of now it is not playing in Minneapolis - maybe that means I should take a trip to NYC for a fun long weekend and enjoy the film while I'm at it!
Much love,
B
i could watch a documentary of just the old couple. how precious.
I think I interviewed to be cast in this! I guess they didn't want us, looks good though.
Great share! This is now on my "to watch" list :)
Pearls could be the earliest identified jewely, and for ages have been considered by far the most precious Pearl Jewelry Set. So incredibly valued are Freshwater Pearl Necklace, that the Roman commanding officer Vitellius allegedly paid for a total army campaign by using just one of his mother's Freshwater Pearl Pendant. Pearls seem to have been worn as a personal decoration for generations. Freshwater Pearl Ring signify chastity, chasteness and ethics. They have for many years been considered ideally suited wedding day presents because clay beads represent chastity and chasteness. Customarily it's a near requirement for brides. Whether it is a tiara for the bride or accessories for the bridesmaids， Acrylic beads are beautiful, light weight, and very affordable. Also known as lucite beads. Fashion and fabulous Lampwork beads have nothing to do with actual lamps as we know them today. In the western world, Sterling Silver Pearl Jewelry are the preferred gift for lovers remembering their third and thirtieth wedding anniversaries. wholesale jewelry supplies, jewelry beads from online store for jewelry making is popular now.
LOVE!!! i'm a hopeless romantic, and just this trailer made me tear up. looks great!!

Looks very promising!
Hey Jo!
My new husband and I caught Love Etc. in LA on Saturday night and really enjoyed it! The director and producer had a Q&A and shared some inside secrets- mainly that they hoped it would end like a Disney tale with rainbows, laughs, and eternal love and were surprised with the actual end result. It was beautiful and we went thanks to your post! We were once again reminded that the world is so very small and connected- thank you for your great work, Jo!
Oh my god, there's so much effective information above!
Hey Jo - I've been jumping into documentaries on Netflix since you posted this (link to your top 10).
I just watched an amazing one, 180° South. It's truly breathtaking, inspiring, and asks all the right questions. It's even a bit funny. Check it out for your next movie night in.
In my view every person ought to look at it.
Thank you for your article, quite useful data.
