MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS Back in 1989 Kylie Minogue had only been a pop star for just over a year...although to me she had already been around for years because i idolised her. So it was really exciting for me, as a fan to see a whole film featuring my favourite girl Kylie.
This is a very simple story of forbidden love in a world where no one seems to care, our 2 lovebirds encounter many obstacles in their pursuit to simply 'be together' and it is that that gives the film it's most romantic elements. Along the way we see the lovebirds mature and change as characters and watch how they unravel whenever they are kept apart. Both come from broken homes and seem lost and in search of love making the viewer root for them and hope for a happy ending. ...some would call the film long-winded and a bit boring but if you want to watch a film without all the twists and turns and silly Hollywood glitz then check it out. This is a film that tries it's best to create a real love story and for that i think it deserves a bit of praise....and Kylie really puts her heart and soul into bringing Lola to life and i think she pulls it off extremely well and at times she nails it to perfection. A fine effort all round.
