This is one of the best movies I have ever seen and I LOVE the musical score with the film. I own this movie and I watch it alot, I dont know how I missed it when it first came out. Please show it.
A great movie! This movie came and went without any notice to me. I am grateful to Reel13.org for bringing it to my attention.
I kept feeling like I had been given access to something private, something I shouldn’t see. The musical score was superb, Nat King Cole singing in Spanish with his smooth-cool voice and not to mention the original score which loaned itself to the feeling of tension that was superbly acted out by these two grate actors. I am glad I saw this movie tonight. Thank you Reel13 for bringing it to my attention.
What a lovely, haunting portrait of a relationship. The pacing and repetition of some elements added to the hypnotic atmosphere that seemed almost completely detached from the busy reality of the two character’s lives.
Thanks for easing my Mad Men withdrawal. The atmosphere is so rich and deep; please run it again so I can experience the whole film.
Astonishing; beautifully shot and utterly haunting. The score and actors are top notch. If you have ever deeply loved another, from afar, this will take you into the depths of that despair of not being able to be with the one you deeply love, even when you are with them. Bravo, REEL13 for airing this gem!
