Funny? Well maybe a little bit, but I thought it was mostly very sad. He was rejected (deservedly so, but Lotte was just as unfathful), but to be trapped in the girl's head unable to do anything except look out at the world is too cruel for words!
One of the three reasons has got to be Keener's legs. Jonze & Keener were definitely aware of them throughout. Well, I sure was. No, no the way she sits "un-lady like" in her dresses - it was intentional. It must have been in Jonze's unconscious mind as fetishistic for that particular body part as any Bunuel. : D
“That was absolutely horrid, and really doesn't serve this series well at all. What an insipid, smug, and shallow couple of people. Please, no more of that.”
“An absolute joy of a film and so glad to see this released again with Criterion. The relationship between food and sex has always been apparent, but Itami takes it to such great heights in this film.”
“I have had a love/hate relationship with Bresson films, but always with respect and with integrity. This is a film I have not yet viewed...and after reading this article, it is perhaps time that . . .”
