“Yada yada yada” in Dutch
“Zus & Zo” is all about three adult sisters who conspire to thwart their gay brother’s forthcoming wedding thus preventing him from inheriting a beautiful hotel on the Portuguese coast. Their late patriarch wanted his gay son to go “straight”, so he left the hotel to him if he married. However, the bro wants to acquire the hotel with a marriage of convenience so he can sell it to pay for transsexual surgery – something the distaff want to prevent each for their own selfish reasons. This Dutch flick gets busy and stays busy with nonstop prattling about the “this and that” (zus and zo) of the family, the bro, the hotel, and miscellaneous side plots making it a beautifully filmed and wonderfully cast dialogue-intensive subtitlefest for those who don’t spekadalanguage. Mildly amusing, sometimes sentimental, occasionally poignant, always enjoyable, and incessantly yappy, “Zus & Zo” is just too much reading for too little payoff. (B-)
Great flick!
I had promised myself to see every Dutch movie there is, after seeing the wonderful “Spoorloos” and “Soldaat Van Oranje”. Zus & Zo came up as the first Dutch movie I found on DVD with English subtitles, and I couldn’t miss it. Well, good thing I didn’t. I enjoyed every single frame of it. It’s really light, yet close to being a masterpiece. It’s not the least bit surprising that this movie was nominated for an Academy Award, it’s really great. By the way, I don’t want to mislead anyone: It has absolutely nothing to do with the two movies in question, it’s 100% different. I just mean it’s *almost* as fantastic as they are.Zus & Zo is not exactly about gays, nor is it about family hardships; it’s mostly about feelings and true love. The pure feelings of two men for each other, and the not so pure feelings of 3+1* women for money.(*One of the women is a little more “innocent”; the sisters, however, are not quite that pleasant.*) But the ending comes such that you do not end up hating the women in question. That’s for me to say, the rest is for you to watch. And DO watch it, you won’t be disappointed. I repeat: It’s not a movie for gays, I liked it very much as a straight guy. And Monique Hendrickx is a goddess. I’ll marry her when I grow up 😉 I just had to add that!
