I Love You Too (2001)
While camping in France, Eric and Eddy fall in with two women. Eric talks to Silke, a Ugandan studying medicine in Holland. She tells him about her life and asks about the book he's writing: it's the story of his love affair with Reza. He tells her the story and we see it in flashbacks: Reza explodes into his boring life, she's unpredictable and their relationship becomes intense.

I wanted to but couldn't!
Blistering performances.
I have a different opinion about this film. People above me say it's extremely exaggerated. I can tell you this film does not go halfway of what people with Borderline experience in their heads. Just because this already is hard to understand, because of it's outrageousness, because of the unbelievable ways a Borderline-mind works, this film does not go any deeper than this. The way a Borderliner thinks and feels is way beyond human understanding. Unless you have Borderline, or you live with somebody who has it, you will never be able to comprehend this... I have seen this film twice now, and still know for sure, that it is only half of what it should be...
When "Ik ook van jou" was released on dvd, I ran to the videostore to rent it. Having read the book by Ronald Giphart (I've read all of his books) I really wanted to see what they had made of it.Sadly, the fun that is present in the book is nowhere to be found in the movie. What remains is the sad story of a romance between our protagonist and his highly disturbed girlfriend.Having said that, "Ik ook van jou" makes for an entertaining night of television, just don't expect to much. Maybe the next adaptation of a Ronald Giphart novel will do better (Phileine zegt sorry).
If this was the best dutch cinema had to offer these years, my worst fears have come true. I have NEVER, even in dutch movies, seen worse acting. I couldn't get myself to watch it for more than 40 minutes, so if that's the cause of me missing the genius, so be it.
Wow, A very good movie!!! The movie may start a little slow but when the story about the impossible love between Reza and Eric starts you just get suck in sooo deep, you won't be able to get your eyes from the screen!!!See it! Angela Schijf is very good! The movie about Reza's twisted character and the love Eric feels for her, the troubles that comes with it and the love he gets from it, it's amazing!
