a trip to a present past

Rating: 10/10 (25 February 2007)

In part due to all the beauty of the sets, and all the amazing talent, I was removed from the real world throughout this emotional artsy combination of modern retro teen flick.. and a historically correct assimilation of events leading to the radical change in France at the time..
The acting felt so natural, as if just hanging out.. totally non pretentious..
I felt so close,.. and as let in to their dreamy little temporarily over produced paradise of romantic confusion.. the scenes with the kids were so natural and well directed.. the feel, the music the sounds, and all the amazingly pretty pictures.. some worthy to be like the best paintings of that epic time of change that to me, in this film has been re-justified as a nice take on a modern free form interpretation of a time past.. i felt like in a time machine going back.. and being there as a modern person.. worth more than it's current rating IMHO
