Close to home

Rating: 8/10 (26 February 2014)

I could not help being reminded of my last relationship while watching Her (a lonely relationship at times, that one). Is this movie about my Ex and me? No. But it is about 'us' today, as a technology -- the way we interact, and what constitutes as intimacy.
The finality I wanted so badly at the end of this film comes in the same vain as when the expectations of any one person or event, far removed from anything personal, leaves the other disappointed. What an excellent lesson of sorts! Left this viewer feeling contemplative, if that is a thing that can be felt..
