Description

When Ocho, a 30-something Argentine poet on vacation in Barcelona, spots Javi from the balcony of his Airbnb, the attraction is subtle but persistent. After a missed connection on the beach, a third chance encounter escalates to a seemingly random hookup. But are these two merely beautiful strangers in a foreign city or are they part of each other’s histories—and maybe even their destinies? With sumptuous lensing of a Barcelona summertime and tangible chemistry between the actors, End of The Century is a love story that echoes across time.

    Hard to find a good romance in cinema these days. This one is universally beautiful.

    The story plus with time and place in a very loose way, so, you kinda just go with it and it serves as an entertaining exploration of different “phases” or...possibilities...of one man’s life. And the main characters are A.) hot and B.) work well together so that’s a plus.

    Everything about this movie was third rate, acting, writing, and directing... don't bother.
  • One of the best movies of 2019!

    This is an exceptional movie with a complex narrative that is entirely driven by character rather than external circumstances. It isn’t “entertaining” per se but I was slowly but surely drawn in and then completely riveted by the movie. I’m also really appreciating how some contemporary gay filmmakers are able to integrate a certain “hotness” factor into their work in a way that adds to the depth of their characters rather than flattening them. Wow, this and “Pain and Glory” in the same year! Two different but somehow complementary Spanish language gay films that should be appreciated by anyone who loves great cinema.
