Diverging from romances in which lovers are expected to move heaven, earth, and themselves in order to make a moment of love last forever, Past Lives asks us to embrace the changes that come with time.
Lille mesterværk om kulturforskelle mellem USA og Sydkorea (som ikke alle seere måske kan leve sig ind i) og om at møde internetvenner IRL (her kan de fleste nok være med). En af årets bedste film.
En lågmält och dröjande berättad historia om saknad, längtan och funderingar om tillhörighet. Jag får vibbar av tidig Woody Allen med dialogdriven story och väl utskurna karaktärer.
This is far too intimate a movie to feel like a play. So much depends on the micro-gestures: furtive glances, bathroom exchanges over toothbrushing, two hands almost touching on a handrail, all practically crackling with electricity.
The film’s bittersweet serenity can be intoxicating; this is an uncommonly elegant directorial debut, beautifully shot and edited, with sensitive performances by Greta Lee, Teo Yoo, and John Magaro.
