One of the best parts of falling in love is when you do so without even realizing it… as is the case here.
“Both apartments are generic, but for different reasons. Because it’s not really clear where she comes from, we didn’t want to leave any clues about Lena’s history. Whereas Barry’s place is reflective of the blandness in his life, so there is no passion showing on his walls or in his furniture.”

I missed while watching the film, yet is easily recognizable in this still that Jason Schwartzman has purchased himself some hand gel.
“Filming in a country and culture that feels so different and foreign affected us all and helped to get everyone in the same frame of mind. You know, on the train there was no disappearing into your trailer or going home at night and turning on ESPN, so we really got to know each other very well. People always bond on film sets, but something seems to have happened that was particularly strong on this one. Being in India almost forced everyone into a true sense of family.”

It’s literally a chess match between Light Yagami (Tatsuya Fujiwara) L (Ken’ichi Matsuyama) in this conclusion to the Death Note series.
Now raise your hand if you dressed like either Light or L for Halloween this year. Raise both hands if you dress like either everyday. Raise both hands and one leg if you do all the above and dress like either to bed. Raise both hands and both legs if you dress like either with all the above and when you shower.

One of the few 2007 films I’ve somehow missed. After reading Michael’s review that is linked below, I certainly need to get out and see this asap while it’s still in theaters.

Emily Watson is stellar as Lena in this film as she offers up a complex exterior emotional facade that protects her internal longings and keeps her from opening up her real beauty to others. Though through her walls Barry seems to see this beauty shining through and keeps him pushing ahead to win her over.
‘’Paul (Thomas Anderson) took me to Art’s Deli and told me that he was writing something for Adam Sandler. He asked me what I wanted to do next and I said, ‘I don’t want to do anything more like cry or die.’ We had a great afternoon, just chatting away; of course I didn’t know at this stage that he’d already written me a part.”

I love how in this picture all three brothers despite having contrasting facial expression, seem to all be staring off with the same internal longings.
“The story reminded me of one of those family vacations you had growing up where everything would end in disaster. Even though we’re supposed to be having this blessed spiritual experience, we can’t quite get past the bickering that kept us away from each other for so long in the first place.”
