Past Lives, written and directed by Celine Song and starring Greta Lee, Teo Yoo, and John Magaro. The Korean concept of inyeon () is presented in a brilliant and beautiful film that will stick with me for a while. Na Young (Nora), Hae Sung, and Arthur are all so real. Full of love, emotion, longing, and nostaglic memories.

In the last few days I've watched two movies exploring this concept called "love", or rather attraction, with all the quirks and hurdles and insecurities - and they couldn't be more different. What a time to be alive

I recall - Years ago when I had a massive past life in - my home in Massachusetts had a major going on while I broke freer from illusion and opened fully and had massive visions of my past lives.

Oh my WORD, is a really wonderful movie!
I had so many polyamory feelings watching it - it seemed to show an understanding that you can have strong feelings for someone while truly loving someone else and I LOVED it!

This is such a simple film, yet the magnificence is in the detail. A love story of mature heart, with a true sense of the real world. For a debut, Celine Song has a bright future behind the camera, and the performances of Lee and Yoo are damn near flawless.

Well, after Zak Hepburn and Michael Rowlamd raved about the other day ('best film at the Oscars' predictions!), I must say I was a little underwhelmed. Very expertly executed, sure, but it didn't blow me away. I think maybe they've not been to very many film festivals the subtlety seemed to be a novelty to them, yet the weak plot construct didn't bother them.

Watched the film 'Past Lives' last night. Utterly superb and a complete joy to watch such an intelligent, nuanced exploration of love, relationships, and the past. All of the actors are superb, and the direction by Celine Song is faultess. It's hard to convey just how good this is, but many critics are hailing it as the 'film of the year'.

In UK cinemas today
From Crazy Rich Asians to new romance Past Lives, a raft of recent movies has featured reconnections with distant homelands deftly addressing complex questions around diaspora and identity
In stories about immigration, longing and loss, the idea of returning to the motherland can appear like an alluring siren call.
The main characters & their equation is understated & so subtly handled. A happy present on one side of the bar table, & a most meaningful possibility on the other -- without overt sentiment or melodrama -- seeing life & choices for what it is & what it could have all been. No resentment, no jealousy, no regret. There is a tinge of sadness, & it is so elegantly captured, almost directed at the passage of time, growing up, losing homes, people, places, languages, & ourselves.
Celine Song's is one of the most stunning movies that I have watched this year. It deserves all the applause it's received. It's visually beautiful, especially in how it frames vast empty urban spaces, and humanises them because of the characters in the shot, almost making you remember that places are often real because of the people you know in them.

I'm watching Past Lives (2023)
'Past Lives' is a raw, beautiful and touching film crafted brilliantly and realistically. , , , ,
J'viens de voir et je trouve vraiment dommage que le film soit distribu en France qu'en dcembre prochain, soit 6 mois aprs les US !
C'tait la premire ralisation de mais le film me donne vraiment une vibe mi-chemin entre et .
Il a un peu le mme ct "doux-amer"
Okay, is anyone else mind-boggled by the depth and (brutal) rawness of this new A24 flick in these times
was beautiful & well worth the hype. There's an obvious tonal nod to 'In the Mood for Love' & a thematic tie-in to 'Brooklyn', but it genuinely felt very much like it's own thing. Note-perfect performances and both direction & especially writing that had subtlety that's annoyingly uncommon. I loved how resolute it was in its wistfulness. The 'What If' was the point, not a tangible fantasy of something else or a trashing of the present. Gorgeous.
highly recommended!
What a great sensitive film. A film like a that is extremely attentive to people! It is also beautiful to look at!!
