Beautiful!
This will surely take one of the top spots in my fav movies, definitely. Well crafted movie, good direction, great acting.. great stuff. The movie has just two characters, strangers who meet on a train. The best thing what I liked about this movie is the small, little details; details that exist between strangers, details that's seen between those who share an intimate relationship, they have captured in all those wonderful scenes. The actors have done a great job in getting those minute details in their expressions, in their dialogues, the voice modulation.. simply remarkable.
Its worth mentioning these scenes, which impressed me:
- The scene where the actor comes to the actress and requests her to get off the train along with him to spend the rest of the day with him. I mean, the actress portrayed everything what that character, what that moment asked for.
- Both of them enter into the small room in the record shop where they listen to the song 'Come here'. A sweet little scene makes you smile. Both give some great expressions.
- And many more of these kinds..
Few lines from the movie:
Poem-
"Daydream delusion
Limousine eyelash
Oh, baby, with your pretty face
Drop a tear in my wineglass
Look at those big eyes
See what you mean to me
Sweet cakes and milkshakes:
I am a delusion angel
I'm a fantasy parade
I want you to know what I think
Don't want you to guess anymore
You have no idea where I came from
We have no idea where we're going
Lodged in life, like branches in the river
Flowing downstream
caught in the current
I carry you, you'll carry me
That's how it could be
Don't you know me?
Don't you know me by now?"
- "You know, I believe if there's any kind of God... it wouldn't be in any of us, not you or me... but just this little space in between. If there's any kind of magic in this world... it must be in the attempt of understanding someone, sharing something. I know it's almost impossible to succeed... but who cares, really? The answer must be in the attempt."
Rating: 4.5/5
