| A Very Long Engagement is the best movie in the world. Better than Amelie. It's directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet, the same guy who directed Amelie. A few actors from Amelie are in it too. Seriously, I haven't seen all the movies in the world but I can tell you right now that this is the best. It's about a girl named Mathilde whose fiancee was killed in World War One. She doesn't think he's dead and insists on looking for him. I cried a thousand times during that movie. A thousand. Even for me, that's a lot. I cried at parts that weren't even necessarily sad but just beautiful. You know how Amelie had lots of red and green and a splash of blue? Well A Very Long Engagement has a washed out, yellow, old-fashioned look to it with bits of red, green and purple. It is so wonderful. If you liked Amelie or French movies in general, you have to see it. I love you all. P.S. Can't do accents so you'll have to deal with some anglicization. P.P.S. It's kind of long though. I didn't notice really, until I looked at the clock at it was 9. (I started the movie at 7.) P.P.P.S. It has a lot of sex in it but I didn't mind it at all. It didn't seem out of place or gratuitous. |
