"L’amour ouf burns everything in front of it, it can even risk getting burned, but it doesn’t care. It has the madness and recklessness (the word ‘ouf’ in the title can also be recomposed as ‘fou’) of a debutant or a filmmaker who decides to risk it all. Slaps, punches, punches in the face but also The Cure pin on the jacket and the temptations of a musical with the illusion of a collective dance behind the two protagonists. In addition, the places of destiny return: a telephone booth where there is too much light. If you take off your sunglasses you risk being dazzled like in the scenes with the solar eclipse. Yes, you can get burned, but it is a film so ramshackle and full of life that it seduces, repels but then makes you fall in love again with the 166 minutes that fly by, also burned by a film that has a great desire to tell a story, even shouting too much, but has such generosity that you wouldn't want to stop anymore." (Simone Emiliani)
