It was all about the sound track

Rating: 10/10 (26 January 2005)

I was taken, in the first place, by the sound track. I did not care anymore what that movie was all about, just by watching them and listening to the music, which was all over the room. I was watching, carefully. But at that moment, even if I did not enjoy the story, the music had already taken me to the state of mind where I was supposed to be. So, this is what happened: I was taken and driven for the rest of the movie.
I just wondered, during the entire exhibition, I was somewhere else, somewhere really close to real life, where men and women behave in a truth way. The movie was real, concerning either men or women. Most of the times I felt like Natalie's character, crying to keep the one she knew she loved; sometimes I felt like Julia, a developed woman who knows what she wants, and who knows how to get there. But no one did really, getting there, except for the skin doctor, the only who worked with rationality as his background.
If the movie doesn't leave a final moral message, that is because life is not like that either. Life does not leave a final message. We have to read it in between. We act, we react, and that is all life is all about.
I was just in doubt about the fact "Alice" lies about her name the whole movie. She just reveals it to the doctor. I couldn't get the signs. Just thought that, sometimes, the mystery is what takes a man interested. So much that he only realizes things were not in his hands as he thought they were at the moment he knew she was not so much under his power. Men versus women. And a wonderful soundtrack.
