I've Loved You So Long

Last night I went to see this film. Today a melancholy has descended. Why?

The film is powerful as described in the reviews and Kristen Scott Thomas puts out ones of the best performances I have seen in a while. Actually all the actors do a great job.

The story is nothing really special, nothing that we haven't seen you. The prison of the mind blah blah blah.

Why the melancholy? Certainty there is something here about the futility of life and the meaningless of it all. Scott Thomas captures the feels so well and reminds me of some thoughts I would rather forget. For today this film has really struck a chord that will resonates on.
