So if Einstein was right, we all fall in love and break apart simultaneously, except that if time is a fiction, so is simultaneity, I guess. Which is just a dumb joke to distance me from the emotional gut-kicking administered by this time warp of love, omega to alpha. "I feel bruised," said one of my after-work movie posse, and yeah, I can get behind that. Beautifully structured, sensitively shot, and miraculously acted by
Michelle Williams and
Ryan Gosling, it is without a doubt one of the best films I'll see this year, but please don't make me see it again anytime soon, and please let me stop thinking about it now.
Trailers
- Cedar Rapids--Came in in the middle of this one (this is what happens when you go with people), but it looks like another lame yuk-it-upper. But just the notion that a movie could be titled Cedar Rapids . . .
- The Adjustment Bureau--And for this one I had to triangulate from stars Matt Damon and Emily Blunt because the projector went out of whack right before the title appeared (and twice during the film, by the way): looks like Amélie meets Bourne.
