(Leonard Maltin’s Movie Guide) « One of the particular strengths of Longtime Companion is that it does not identify its characters only through their sexual preferences. It would seem bizarre to watch a movie in which heterosexual men were defined only by the fact that they like to sleep with women – but many films about gays have made the opposite error, and limited their characters as a result. Longtime Companion is about friendship and loyalty about finding the courage to be helpful and the humility to be helped. » (Roger Ebert)&startdt=2025-07-07T18:30:00&enddt=/2025-07-07T20:15:00&location=17 Place du Théâtre L-2613 Luxembourg&path=%2Fcalendar%2Faction%2Fcompose&rru=addevent){kind=link}
