5.0 out of 5 stars Surreal and Real, October 14, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Sammy & Rosie Get Laid [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Sammy & Rosie is one of my top 5 movies of all time. It's difficult to find, and not available on DVD, but worth buying, even used. Director Frears' usual ability to probe sexual mores, ambiguities and absurdities is brilliantly mixed with the politics of power, class and race.

4.0 out of 5 stars Raw London, September 23, 2000
By 
Rubens Leme Costa (São Paulo, São Paulo Brazil) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sammy & Rosie Get Laid [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Sammy and Rosie Get Laid is a real picture of London in the mid-80. The story is based in a couple living in London during the clash between police and demonstrators. The unemployment was too high and there was the minorities, like coloured didn't have a chance for survive. Sammy and Rosie believe in free love and have lovers. The relantioship is based in free wheeling. Sammy has a father, Rafi, an former politician in India that moved to London. Rafi intends to live in London forever and find his mistress that he left 30 years ago. Rafi met Victoria (or Danny), a coloured man with no job. Victoria lives in a trailer and walks away. Sammy hates his father, but Rafi give his money to Sammy. Rosie is a feminist and supporter of lesbians, gays and unemployers. A real and raw London you cand find it with a great finale. Enjoy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Film, January 2, 2008
This review is from: Sammy and Rosie Get Laid (DVD)
One of my top five (four? three? two?) films of all time. Cinematically lush and evocative.... Provocative, sensual and painting characters with a richness that allows the viewer to connect and empathize (quite a trick with character ranging from man-hating lesbian to old world old man autocrat). Watch it.
