Punch-Drunk Love (2002) Moved Me to Tears

So, a recently-opened movie pageant in my nation has a PTA part this yr, and I lastly received an opportunity to watch this traditional. Thoughts? Well, as advised within the title, there have been tears in my eyes in the course of the second to the final scene (the one by Lena's door)! It's one of the highly effective films about love, and it's not simply in regards to the essence of affection, however extra importantly, how highly effective love may be, and why individuals want love.

Barry is such a well-written character. He is stuffed with flaws, however these flaws make him charming in a relatable approach, and ultimately it’s these flaws that drive the story to its blissful ending. You simply couldn't assist however root for him, and when he earns his love of life, you might be deeply touched as a result of you already know he deserves it. His life is now not absent of somebody who really listens to him and understands him unconditionally, and there's no extra becoming ending for this poor good man who appears to be ceaselessly tortured by solitude all his life.

There are in fact quite a lot of different issues to love about this film. One of the most effective chase scenes I've seen in a film. Tons of iconic traces. Amazing cinematography and superior music. Just just a little unhappy that we don't get to hear the complete model of "Here We Go" within the film.

The indisputable fact that that is my first PTA will get me very excited. Can't wait to see extra of his stuff in the course of the pageant.
