Loved this film! I spent a long time afterward musing about what my wishes would be.
I could easily see the motivation behind the wishes made by the Tilda Swinton character. The whole film is about what you would wish for, and why. Her character thought through all of this as the film progressed, with the help of the stories told by the djinn.
Fascinating and deep! I loved the interaction between the rational, logical character played by Swinton and Elba's passionate, romantic storyteller djinn.
