"Paul and Michelle",the sequel to "Friends" is set 3 years after the lovers last saw each other. Paul goes to find Michelle against the wishes of his Father. Of course they meet again and have a joyful reunion. But things do not go quite as well as planned... There is no happy ever after here, more a shade of reality which many will identify with. Watching this can be a little disappointing, after all to fans of the first film we all have an idea of how this follow up might have been. Well worth catching if you wonder what happened after "Friends". Still waiting for that third and final sequel!

No matter what anybody says about this film it is great. You can feel the love between the both of them. Watching it will really make you feel good! Make sure you watch Friends first though. I just wish that they would have made a sequel to this one too!

Back in 1975, when I was at the Air Force Academy -Venezuela, we used to watch a movie every friday night. The night I saw Friends, with Paul & Michelle, changed the way of seeing life for me then, because being only 16 1/2 years old, I had to be inside those four walls. However, my mind was set up free and had virtually no boundaries.

Years past by and I was not able to watch theat wonderful movie ever, and the song was not heard much either anywhere. Now, this classic movies from the 70's brings back so many nice memories of that young couple that revived the way life should be. Of course, Mr. Elton John's song gave that final "touche". Thanks to Mr Gilbert too, was terrific.

PLAY IT AGAIN IN THEATERS, CABLE, TV, INTERNET, EVERYWHERE so people can enjoy it as much as I did. My wife Yanet and myself are very grateful and we will watch it again soon. The song, well what can I say, it is one of our very own personal symbols. lh

When I saw the prequel to this movie, Friends, I was delighted. Up until then it was the best love story I have ever seen. It seemed so real. I actually believed the two actors were really in love. That movie changed my life so drastically.

So, I had to see the second one. I cant say it was a bummer because it was still good. The love beetween Paul and Michelle was still there. However, the producers failed to explain completely how they got separated the end of the first film. Also, they included stuff like: another lover, jealousy, and different other kinds of divertion. It wasnt like the first one where they had their love nest and they could not be bothered.

When it ended, I didnt know what was happening. I said to myself why are they showing the credits in the middle of the movie? It took me awhile to realize that my quarter had runned out and that the movie was over. It made me feel like flying on an airplane from New York to London and just running out of fuel in the middle of the Atlantic. Nothing was solved. Enigma remained as to what happened to them. I started thinking how this movie wasnt any good, but I remembered how good the first one was, so I give it a 4 stars, instead of 2. One thing I tell you, if you saw the first one, you HAVE to see this. Belive me, it will only make you like the first one even more

I hadn't seen this movie in years, I remember being disappointed when I saw how it ended when I was much younger, now I wasn't disappointed and understood and appreciated it much better. If you loved Friends and Elton John Music in Friends, there wasn't his music this time in the sequel, but it is a very good movie for it's time!

I saw "friends" as a teenager. The actress in this movie- looked exactly like the girl I was in love with. The most beautiful face I ever saw. I mean- it would have folled her own mother- anyway, I loved this movie and I believe it to be the best love story that ever was. Unfortunately- the Michelle in my life- was not the girl in the movie. I hope she finds happyness- whereever she is. The last time I saw her- she was doing the weather on a New Orleans TV station. She told me she had no experience on doing TV of coarse, but she wrote to the station, and said she'd do the weather for them- and she'd do it for 70K a year. That ws in 1973. She sent them a snap shot of herself, and they wrote back- "when can you start ?" She was THAT pretty.
