Three Colours: Blue

For two months or so now I've wanted to post commentary on the Three Colours movies. About time I started doing it. :-)

Interest in these three movies was first kindled in me by Adam Cadre's ([livejournal.com profile] adamcadre) reviews, here, here and here. There's cool commentary there, and I urge you to read them.

But first things first. Not so much of a review as random commentary to follow on Three Colours: Blue. A movie which I feel justifies by itself the existence of movies as a medium, more than any other movie I've yet seen.

Several spoilers )

Anyway, I *love* this movie. Most heartily recommended.

And if any paragraphs in this review don't make any sense at all, it's because it's way past time I should go to bed. Will correct any mistakes tomorrow. :-)
