It shouldn't be called Somewhere, it should be called Nowhere

But then it would have the same title as one of my most favourite movies ever so I totally disagree.

Ah, that's not a problem. You can refer to them as the good Nowhere and the bad Nowhere.

Thanks! I've never counted the films I watch throughout the year before, but I'm pretty sure this year was a low one. I was extra busy. And, yes, I *do* realize I have a problem. I should join "F.A." -- Filmoholics Anonymous -- or something like that *lol*

Yeah, it's a totally odd storyline, but it absolutely works, doesn't it?! Strange :D
Somewhere... oh, my heart's still aching *lol* I absolutely love Sofia's style, and her two first serious films (The Virgin suicides, and Lost In Translation, which is one of my faves ever) were outstanding to me, but lately -- in my humble opinion -- she has lost "the" touch. Anyway, you should definitely check it out. I'm interested to see your take on it. Let me know, ok? ;)

Nope, I'm sure I *do* have one. You're just way too kind to point it out ;)

Yeah, the first time I watched LIT I was with my sister and one of her friends, and *both* of them also didn't care much for it (to put it mildly). I guess it's one of those films that you either apathetically dismiss, or go crazy about it. I went with the latter, obviously. I don't know if it was because of timing, but it resonated and spoke wonders to me. However, I doubt it was just a case of perfect timing, since I watch it every once and a while and *still* love it :D
