Past Lives

Even though it hurts, I think everyone needs that someone who you think about throughout your life, someone you once knew, someone who keeps you grounded to who you were, and how much you’ve changed. The message of past lives here is very meaningful to me, there are so many lives you could’ve lived, and you know this someone would’ve lived them with you. It’s okay to miss them. And it’s okay to miss who you were with them.  I was hesitant to see this movie because even though I knew it would be great, something told me that the visuals would be the bland, uninteresting, flat lighting that’s been popular these days, but I was pleasantly surprised. This movie has some of the best cinematography that I’ve seen in movies, and the color grading reminds me of everything I love about color. It’s perfect. I cried.
