5 out of 5 stars Taboo love but completely compelling   November 1, 2007
 33 out of 38 found this review helpful

This is a beautiful story of love between a teacher and a student that is told so beautifully that the viewer is instantly drawn in as the relationship develops. The leading actresses, Erin Kelly as Annabelle (the student) and Diane Gaidry as Simone (the catholic boarding school teacher) are excellent and believable, the ensemble cast likewise and the locations and the cinematography are beautiful. Katherine Brooks has done a wonderful job in writing and directing a thoroughly enjoyable but thought provoking movie. There is such depth to the story that you indeed forget that the subject matter is taboo and forbidden, it is simply a love story. I would highly recommend it.

When I first read the synopsis on the back of the box i was a bit put off. Let's be honest a teacher-student relationship just isn't right in society.
I'm glad I took the leap and watched this though because there's a lot more to it than that. Firstly, it isn't about this sordid affair but what comes before the inevitable. The story is treated with due respect and unfolds in a tasteful manner that draws you into the feelings of both characters. The torment of a teacher trying to stay in control and the desire and passion of a student not afraid to feel and push boundaries.

Annabelle is the rebellious daughter of a senator who is sent to a Catholic boarding school in an attempt to tame her. Simone is her teacher and head of the dorm she is placed in. From the very beginning Annabelle takes an interest in Simone and aims to befriend her and challenge her emotions and beliefs. The maturation of the relationship is beautiful to watch as it is complex and has the student leading the teacher forward into the world.

The cinematography is fantastic. I would recommend this movie just for that alone. The scenes flow fluidly serving to accentuate the inherent meanings and emotion behind them. You get drawn in without your knowledge until you are one with the characters.
The beautiful soundtrack (which i wish was available on cd!!) makes a huge difference with meaningful songs well placed in the movie adding to the wonderful scene selections and acting.

Trust me, you want to watch this movie. It does not aim to justify but tell a story.

Written and directed by Katherine Brooks and starring Erin Kelly and Diane Gaidry, Loving Annabelle is the story of a forbidden love affair between a teacher and her rebellious student. Simone is a teacher at a strict Catholic girls boarding school and Annabelle is the new arrival who turns her world upside down. Beautifully written and acted, Loving Annabelle is quite simply one of the best lesbian films I've seen.
I can't recommend this movie highly enough - buy it. If you have a multi format DVD I would suggest purchasing the Region 1 version as it has a multitude of excellent extras - including an alternative ending. Enjoy.

This film not only depicts the love of two people, it also lets the viewer feel the emotion that the two people feel. If you have ever experienced real love in you life, you will see it as natural what these two people are doing. The sexual act in the end which is the actual climax of the film, makes you understand that it love and nothing else.
And the poem at the end is right "it is the hardet thing in the world".
I highly recommend it!!!

This is a really good film, well worth watching. The two leads have great chemistry. Erin Kelly (Annabelle) has enough charisma to carry the movie and Diane Gaidry (Simone) is convincing as the teacher struggling to come to terms with her feelings for her pupil. The music complements the action very well. The DVD has an alternative ending, which will appeal to those who want Annabelle and Simone to be together and there is an interesting featurette with writer and director Katherine Brooks and the two stars on how they made Loving Annabelle.
