Since I'm on my memory lane and reminiscing when I was sixteen, I thought it fit to talk about one of the films I saw then that changed me so much and still have the exact imapct on me now as it did when I saw it for the first time.
Alright so this film is bascially the reason I became an indie junkie! I loved the colors, the outfits, the filming of the ocean, the photographs of the relationship and the places, the music score, the intimacy and how everything just fit everything else.
My definition of a great film, isn't how big it is with effects or bullshit, no. it's how close to the heart everything feels. the reason why I love indie flicks so much its because I love the simplicity and closeness of it or maybe I'm just lame.
Everyone knows how music playing over still images is major art.. you learn that on the first day of never.shot.a.film.in.my.life course so it's no secret how This Year's Love is another reason why this film is so dear to me, the vocals on that song gives me chills.. every single time.
This film brings joy and tears to me and I suck at explaining why, all I know is that it's a great film and if it went on for 7 hours I would watch it... without a bathroom break.
"And I've been waiting on my own too long
But when you hold me like you do
It feels so right."
