Closer

Make some tea, buster. Memories resurface with every scene. Damien Rice’s voice in the opening, their quick-witted conversations. Tea as both healing and forgiving.  I mean every word she says, every tear she sheds. Words can’t capture exactly what this film makes me feel. It takes me back to a place only I know. With uncontrollable desire as its main theme, it’s also beautiful, smart, and raw.  Raw, that’s the word.  Every shot is a perfect balance of beauty and dreaminess and painfully real. Every line stays with me.
