Two of my favorite movies.

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2002)

I saw The Big Blue in theatres. (in America). I fell in love with it. It
was by far the most amazing movie I had ever seen. I made all of
my friends see it too. When they asked me what it was about, I
wasn't really sure. Love. Insecurity. Understanding. Longing.
Isolation. Peace. That's what I told them. Then I went to buy the
score. The score by Eric Serra was new to me. I had Heard the
Conti version in the American release. I listened to the album.
Over and over again. Then I went to the ocean to swim. Years
later, i was talking to a friend about my favorite movie in the world.
He introduced me to Le Grand Bleu. My second favorite movie in
the world. I love both versions of the film. They are very different. I
was actually felt more strongly for the American version. It seemed
to be missing something. And i thought that was the point of the
movie. The second, Le Grand Bleu, shows you that nothing is
missing. You only have to change your expectations. Watch them
both. One will mean more to you than the other. Whichever one
works for you, that's the better.
