This movie was heavy, in a way that I could feel it with me for weeks afterwards. It was beautiful and great to watch, but there was a part of me that had a difficult time understanding the relationship. It was hard, and a little ackward and made me feel as if the protagonist was, perhaps, a little off. But it was seriously worth the time of watching it, and I still smile when I think of her love.

Her superstitions reminded me of my childhood…and my inability to tell the difference between cause, effect, and completely unrelated things. And that’s what this movie was, a childlike, innocent vision of love and loss.

It was alright. It just kind of made me want to watch Amelie.

Actually, I will say it is a little bit boring. The story was good with a sad ending, but the way the director put that into a sceene was excessively long and trivial.

You have to be relax to watch this movie. Don’t watch that for just an entertainment…

Maybe because I watched it just to kill my time….

I just watched this movie last night. It was fantastic. It has the same star and director as Amelie. Although it isn’t as light as Amelie, it has the same sort of magical optimism. I think I may buy it someday.

even though the opening shot is of a mutilated statue of jesus (peace be upon him) on a cross (symbolizing the absolute barbarity of war, especially WW1), Mathilde’s struggle to keep hope and finding her fiancé deemed dead is, well, a good antedote.

Man, watch it! It’s jean-pierre jeunet, one of the best!
