Absolutely superb movie...
just saw it right before writing this...
remember having seen the clip on YT,
and it gave me the feeling I should enjoy it :
I definitively did !
As say others comments, mesmerizing, mysterious, delicate...
and very profound even though quiet hidden at the beginning...
It reveals this aspect, like all the movie, like a woman in love,
slowly, enigmatically, words after words, with great sensitivity...
And Tilda Swinton, wow ! what an actress !
Plus she's beautiful ! I didn't see any movie with her before,
but for sure gonna see some more...
Not at all a usual Jimmy Somerville fan, I just love his part too ;
and last song leaves you full of hope in our humanity.
Music, cinematography, set design and costuming are absolutely exquisite and stunning.
But unfortunately guess this exceptional movie is not for everyone's taste..
In one sentence, Sally Potter made a movie that you won't forget !
Her film eventually expresses what Orson Welles wrote with so much accuracy :
"a film is never really good unless the camera is an eyes in the head of a poet"
