Because "emotions are not overrated", that is all that we have got.

Rating: 10/10 (25 November 2015)

There are some moments in life, when you just feel that this day was worth living, just to see, experience or feel something. To discover something, the beauty or an emotion that you had not felt for some time now. Because "emotions are not overrated", that is all that we have got. Thanks to this movie, the "Youth", I have had this experience. It is a beautiful movie, a must-see, not just in its general way of speaking, but also as to (re)discover the beauty of a real masterpiece (maybe it seems like big words now, but not anymore, after you have seen it for yourself). I could write about the funny or deep dialogues or about the sophisticated and perfectly composed pictures (from a scene in the elevator, which seems more like a portrait from the seventieth century; not to mention the sights of Switzerland, which – with all its astonishing views - it is not more than a simple frame for the story). But rather we should talk about youth, symbolized by a beautiful – and not at all stupid - Miss Universe, but also by some teenager, sending us the message that, actually, they are understanding the important things in life, and more than that, they are understanding us, as well. The whole story goes around a friendship of two old friends, a composer and a screenwriter, who know each other so well, that they do not have to tell each other anything, but just the good things, that have happened to them. And while one of them is working on his last movie - his great testament - the other tries to be more occupied with his daughter and a new friend – an actor -, then to focus on the fact that he is aimlessas they say, apathetic. Through these meeting life paths, one can realize that money or success can give you any joy, but you will not remember anything else but the real emotions, the love, the fights with the loved ones, the work, in which you have had put your soul in it. Just the things, which we desire and inspire us for even more desires. In case this is a rather sentimental and personal view of this magnificent movie, one can just enjoy the pseudo - music video that Paloma Faith performs in one of the protagonist's nightmare. It is fantastic! Don't forget, a must-see.
