Beautiful! Fantastic score, of course. I pretty much cried the whole way through.

Beautiful but reeally hard to follow.
It's sad that most of the time the beatiful films have slightly fail storylines or make little sense

I didn't find it that confusing - there are three "times", the spanish, the present/doctor/she's dying, the "space future", but the spanish/future both happen within the context of the book. She writes the spanish part, he writes the future part - he finishes the book off. He plants a seed on her grave..

You can take it the other way and think that the future part was real though, I guess, but it doesn't fit as well.

I don't think that it's a matter of slightly fail storylines as just being hard to interpret/sometimes very complex/very metaphorical..

I don't remember it, it came out some while ago :<
My ideal movie would have lovely visuals as well as Tarantino style quality dialogue too <3

Hah yeah, I have a big backlog of films to watch.

Ahhh~ I can't think of any of my favourite films that have that much witty dialogue :P

Hugh Jackman is 100% man, and probably the most masculine guy I'm into. Delicious <3 That said, I wish I'd seen the boy from oz xD

Aronofsky is amazing, though I still have Pi and The Wrestler to watch.

Composer is the word you're after :D

Requiem is amazing. So experimental but works so well. I've had The Wrestler downloaded for agessss *cough* but haven't had a chance to watch it.

I'm the worst film student. I have seen nothing -_- Lynch and some more of Chan Wook Park's stuff is next on my list.
