What are some of your most memorable scenes (potential spoilers)


Mine would be when he reminisced the days when he first attended school as a kid. The juxtaposition is so powerful. Even when you're going towards the end of your life there's still a vulnerable child inside you and you still have the fear of the unknown no matter how old you are.

And then there's also the scene at the swimming pool when Emilio claims he is still alive. I even remember the withered leaf that sticks around until it gets blown away. It just depicts the loneliness of the elderly and their struggle with the inevitable in such a detailed way.

Towards the end of the movie there're a few lines of captions which really gave me an uneasy feeling. I think this movie is just incredibly brilliant.

Just seen it! So moving I think I'm going to die!

For me the most moving scene was when it showed the two old couple as kids and how they fell in love! So beautiful and moving!
