Gorgeously shot hardcore sex and 3-D never felt so intimate. And sad. So very sad. You’ll think about a turtleneck sweater and a door as much as an erect penis. And that lingers.

That Love fulfills all the titillating tenets of [the porn] genre is unsurprising; that it’s as simultaneously tender, touching, and even tasteful as its title implies is, for this filmmaker, the most shocking development of all.

This is not a rich, novelistic tapestry of humanity; this is a solipsistic world, enclosed on all sides by the director’s ego. But the entrapment is vivid and poignant. Look past all the beautiful people fucking, and you realize that Love is sad in all the right ways.
