This is the result when Art and Romance make love on the bed of adventure mixed with the best of soundtracks. This kind of movies are rare. Extreme master piece. Its not about the sex or erotics....more of baring and connection of 2 souls, and if you didnt feel that connection, then its best you stick to '12 angry men' !
shareAgree with everything but the soundtrack. I grew weary of the main theme. It was played to the point all poignancy was lost.
shareI agree about the soundtrack being repeated too much. But, as for the OP, yes oh yes---this is very powerful stuff! I certainly felt it. And what I love the most is that it doesn't linger on the sappy. It's more whimsical than anything else, and what I felt most between the characters was joy, not just lust, like with some films. There is a sprightly, innocent, pure JOY that is here---to the point that it almost feels like an enchanted fairy-tale!
I admit, I started out watching this film solely for the eroticism of it (okay, the sex), but I ended up liking it for reasons mainly other than that. A truly sweet and inspiring film, because it shows what intense, playful, fun and joy the human heart is capable of!
Please excuse typos/funny wording; I use speech-recognition that doesn't always recognize!
