Search - Three of Hearts on DVD

A Wonderful Documentary

"I saw this film recently and was amazed at what the filmmakers brought to light. It seemed to be a film about a very unusual relationship, but at its core, it was a film about people trying to navigate intimacy. You saw that these people were basically like anyone else trying to balance love, work and family. Their growth as people served as a neat way to end the journey we took with them.
The film moved well, with lots of humor and tension to keep you engaged in these people's lives.
I highly recommend it!"

With an open mind....

"Life, love, marriage, sex, children, experimentation. Saw this film st the New York festival. I think of myself as an open minded, liberal heterosexual with broad experience. This flick was an eye opener. Life is not an exact science and experimentaion can lead to breakthroughs or failure or something in between. This is a wonderful spectacle showing that really nice well meaning people can get themselves into situations that are alternately exiting, scarey, enlightening, promising and doomed all at the same time. I loved it and realized that I don't know everything. It taught me to have an open mind."

A Centerpiece For Dialogue

"I saw this movie in Miami and was blown away by its effect on me and my boyfriend. The movie is so entertaining and thought provoking that afterward, and for at least two days, we used the movie as a Centerpiece for us to express our views on the eternal question "How do you view marriage?" This movie asks that question and makes you want to think about an answer. As far as production values are concerned, it is a warm-hearted movie that you have to love."

A sensitively told story about real people in an extraordina

"I saw Three of Hearts at an NYC screening and was really impressed with both the bravery of the documentary's three characters and the filmmaker's sensitivity in telling such a personal story. Threesomes may be an interesting rarity, and the film could have been exploitative, aiming for titillation and shock, but instead it's a really well-told story spanning years, covering all of the natural highs and lows of the relationship, from love and sex to finances and children.

I think in the end it shows how strikingly normal this rather unusual set-up is, and how the people in it have to deal with all of the same things people in more common partnerships do. It's also consistently funny and entertaining to watch, though its being realistic and honest about the relationship means it has its bittersweet and even uncomfortable moments as well."
