This film will melt your heart.....it's a great story. The thing is....you just want to know more after the film is over....always a good sign that the characters have touched your heart.
From the very beginning...the look on Edie's face says it all....the start of an adventure....the smile on Jonny's face....the shoes, clothes, the scenes are all symbolic of her journey...the disregard for frailty and vulnerability being seen as a weakness by the great part of humanity...where they should be feeling the need to care more....to reach out and help more..is portrayed perfectly.
Each scene, each word is picked to perfection....it's like reading a classic novel written by one of the greats.....it doesn't flounder about with frilly nonsense....it is perfectly chosen to move the story along with ease and this to me is great art.
Look closely at every thing you are shown..listen for the words not said and you will find a priceless piece of art .....a great story. There is so much to gain from this great film.....a classic that will stay with you for years to come.....and most of all....inspiration to be a better human being and to live your life every day as if it was your last. Great art in every way.....from the first few pages of writing....to the directing...the production and the fantastic skills of the actors. Priceless.
