"Love is Strange" is like a beautiful yet unfinished painting; an enigmatic portrait of the lives of two wonderful characters that has just enough blank canvas to make it feel somehow mesmerizingly incomplete. Directed by Ira Sachs, "Love is Strange" is the story of Ben (John Lithgow) and George (Alfred Molina), a gay couple living in New York that marries after nearly 40 years together. Ben is a painter and George is a music teacher working at a Catholic school. George loses his job when the archdiocese learns of the wedding, and Ben and George are forced to give up their apartment. While looking for a new place, the couple is forced to live apart temporarily as none of their friends and family have enough room for both.
