āItās my all time favorite movie starring French bombshell Audrey Tautou and really the only recommendation Iāll ever have. Sheās a sexy gold digger. Heās a charming waiter. Itās chic. Itās romantic. Itās fashion. Itās French. Itās everything I want tied up with a bow.
I watched it twice the day I got worst period. š

š„This film focuses heavily on the mood and feel. From shots of the French Riviera's rocky shore, to the sprawling fields by the Villa, you're constantly treated with the beauty of nature. In stark contrast to nature's simple & easy beauty, the characters range from narcissistic to "Bohemian" (as described in the movies summary). The plot here focuses on the 3 people vacationing in this villa, 2 friends Adrien & Daniel, and an unwelcome guest HaydĆ©e ā dubbed the collector of men. Told from Adrien's perspective, you get to experience his mental contradictions first-hand as he battles through what he says he wants, and what you, as a viewer, know he wants. Ćric Rohmerās La Collectionneuse is a great character study, with the excellent bonus of being beautifully shot and extremely vibey.

āObviously The 400 Blows is the best one (and like the contemporaries many a source of my fashion sense) but the other four (Antoine and Collette, Stolen Kisses, Bed and Board, Love on the Run) just have Leaud and Truffaut operating on all cylinders, delightful romcoms but also heartbreaking at times

Past Lives made me think about this.Was it fate, comfort, or just the right and wrong timing? At some point, we stop reaching and just let life happen!!! The movie lingers in that space between longing, acceptance, and what could have beenā¦

šāIf you want to know how poor somebody was growing up, ask them how many windows they had. Donāt ask what was in their fridge or in their closet. The number of windows says it all. It says everything. If they had none, or maybe one or two, thatās all you need to know.ā
