film review (Love My Life)

I saw a great movie last night. A Japanese lesbian love story, which, as I have just discovered, was based on a manga (strangely enough, I haven't read any lesbian mangas, though a own a nice collection of male gay ones, lol). It's very sweet, touching, heart-warming and just lovely, without being too saccharine (at least for me; and while I don't usually mind high sugar content in manga, I do mind it in movies - so I'm happy to say this one had enough angst to balance out the sweetness a bit :P). So, without further ado, I'm using my stolen review template(TM) to tell you a little more about it.
