Past Lives

Past Lives provokes an indescribable feeling of incompleteness. You leave the film with a heart wrenching feeling that things will be forever unfinished. You are left longing for more; wondering about the what ifs, the could’ve’s, the should’ve’s. The idea of the story is so simple, yet it is so complex because of the deep complexity that is human emotion and love.  The emotions I felt throughout Past Lives are for one to experience on their own. As we are taken through this journey of Nora’s inability to fully let go of Hae Sung, despite her already accepting that this is what her life is now that she is married to Arthur, you will only be filled with a sense of hopelessness and heart break. Best movie of the year for me. Highly highly recommend. This is a definite must watch.
