Too much love(?)

No pun intended - you know when some people say that loving too much, having too much passion ... can burn someone (or multiple people)? Could that be true with the two main characters here? They do not seem likely to become a couple - even more so when ... something is missing and the guy has to run to buy it (a scene which is way shorter than I thought it would be).

The movie also is way more sexual than I expected it to be. And there is nudity too of course. Well I say of course, I was not thinking about that when I saw this on a streaming service. I thought it would be a light romantic drama. Well it is mostly light I suppose ... and there is drama and comedy to support it. But it is also in your face and a lot of passion is thrown in your face (and other body parts) ... if you think you are unable to handle those things ... well maybe this is not the movie for you.

Actors are amazing ... also not afraid to bare it all (psychologically but also physically) ... interesting for sure and to say the least ... with maybe not the ending one would expect from it ...
