@LovingPeacefulHeart Thank you for sharing! I haven't had the chance to see it yet, but I’ve heard a lot of praise about Sofia Coppola’s direction. Is there a particular scene or aspect of the film that resonates with you the most?

@Mya000 pretty much all of Charlottes (Scarlet Johanson) experience and point of view. Not that I have had the same experience, but I resonate with it deeply. ❤️

@LovingPeacefulHeart It’s amazing how certain perspectives and experiences in films can resonate so deeply with us!

@Mya000 One scene especially comes to my mind: A slightly bitter (and slightly alcoholic) middle-aged man and a beautiful young woman, left alone by her career-oriented husband. Both strangers in a foreign city. Lying on the bed at night, with their clothes on. No sex, kisses or even hugs. Waiting for the new day to come. Together and so connected. Just beautiful 😍

@WeEarth Thanks for sharing! 😊 I haven’t had the chance to watch it yet, but it’s definitely on my list now. What did you find most compelling about the film?

@Mya000

I felt like it was a reality check on expectations. It reflected how a family is affected by its members' perspectives, assumptions, and the pressures they place on each other.  It also reflects the need for understanding and communication with each other🤔

@WeEarth Films can often serve as a mirror to our own lives. It’s interesting how these stories can serve as a reminder of the importance of empathy and open communication. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

@Mya000 I think Nora Ephron is well worth mentioning. She was a director and a screenwriter for two romantic movie classics: 'You've Got Mail" and "Sleepless in Seattle".

Despite the fact I am a heterosexual middle-aged man, I prefer decent romantic films to movies full of fast cars, shooting or physical violence. The former are much better for keeping up the optimistic attitude and wellbeing :-)
