The Origin of Love

Rating: 9/10 (7 June 2019)

"I could swear by your expression/ that the pain down in your soul/ was the same as the one down in mine/ that's the pain/ that cuts a straight line down through the heart/ we call it love (...) It was a cold dark evening such a long time ago/ when by the mighty hand of Jove/ it was a sad story how we became/ lonely two-legged creatures/ it's the story/ the origin of love..."
I loved this movie. I think it's one of the most beautiful portraits of a broken and searching person I've seen in a movie or a musical. It has deep and inspiring songs that stand by themselves as good music, and it's something so unique and original that I can guarantee you've never seen anything like this.
