The last beautiful autumn day is a German love story by Ralf Westhoff .

action

Numerous misunderstandings and difficulties regularly put the everyday relationship of the two Munich-based Claire and Leo to the test, because although they love each other, the two are fundamentally different. While Claire is plagued by the persistent feeling that Leo is not paying any attention to her and her needs, he is overwhelmed by trying to please his girlfriend. In The Last Beautiful Autumn Day, the two ponder their relationship and themselves - and try to find out whether their love has a future.

Reviews

"It can't be that bad about love in Germany when it produces comedies like the second film by director Ralf Westhoff," said Der Spiegel in its review. “The Munich couple in their early thirties [does] little more [...] than discussing their coexistence or telling the viewer about each other's inadequacies directly into the camera. However, with so much wit, charm and ease that you like to listen to them. "

Hanns-Georg Rodek from Die Welt described Westhoff in his review as the “best writer of relationship dialogues that we have in Germany”. He praised the authenticity and verbal expressiveness of the film. "Westhoff takes punchlines that could have come from a comedy show and refines them with form and exaggeration - and with two actors: Julia Koschitz and Felix Hellmann [...] You should probably spend the last beautiful autumn day in the cinema."

“What Westhoff describes here is nothing new: the ups and downs of love. But it's wonderfully closely observed and put into words with a lot of humor, ”praised Die Zeit . “The way Koschitz and Hellmann play is masterful. Even the lengths of the monologues, all uncut, are a challenge. Filling them with shame, joy, anger and, above all, a lot of humor is an art. "
