"Young People Fucking" blurb
Martin Gero's Young People Fucking, which will show at the Toronto Film Festival on 9.6, 9.7 and 9.8, "lives up to its title -- or down to it, depending on your point of view," according to NOW's John Harkness. His boilerplate description -- "a smart comedy following five couples, in once case a trio, through an evening's sexual encounters that reflect various elements of the relationships" -- is counter-balanced by an admission that "it ain't La Ronde [although] it succeeds within its own self-imposed limits." But I'm going to see it (probably, maybe) because Harkness claims "it has the funniest single line in any movie this year."

If I was dying of thirst and John Harkness told me there was water at the next left turn.....I'd turn right.

Just a thought, but I suspect the MPAA will have a problem with the title of this film.

Did you see that the Toronto Star won't publish the title except as "Young People F------"?

Harkness is great - he's the only reason to pick up the infantile rag he's printed in.
