Ik schrijf dit op de ochtend na de Golden Globes, dus ik weet dat Greta die prijs niet heeft gewonnen (maar Lily Gladstone, die eveneens het beeld van de Amerikaanse topactrice verandert dus daar kan ik verder prima mee leven). Wat is ze, Greta, leuk, scherp, en op andere plekken op YT geestig en mooi. In Past Lives speelt ze superieur, maar wie dit leest weet dat allang. Dat de Golden Globes, net als de Oscars over een paar maanden, vooral het financiële Hollywood vieren en helaas minder over artistieke prestaties gaan, tja, dat is nu eenmaal een gegeven. Laten we die prijzen dus niet té serieus nemen. Ik heb het afgelopen jaar het grensverleggende Past Lives 34 keer gezien (en ga vanmiddag en morgen weer), en WEET dat deze film voor de Amerikaanse cinema heel veel belangrijker zal zijn dan de overigens prima films Barbie en Oppenheimer. Qua scenario, regie, qua montage, qua score. Het sublieme acteren van Greta Lee, maar ook dat van Teo Yoo en John Magaro. Een schrale troost.
I honestly don't understand the hype behind this film. It just wasn't all that deep or entertaining. Her husband in the film was "understanding" to such an absurd degree that if they included a scene where he's being literally cuckolded, it wouldn't surprise me. And the ending was boring, anticlimactic and unsatisfactory. I get that it's supposed to be grounded in reality to contrast it with other romantic flics, but what's her happy ending? She gets to stay with her lame boring simpy husband that she's gonna divorce in a few years and the Korean dude goes back to his own doomed relationship? Lame
In your comment, you inadvertently revealed so much about your own nature-- your emotional insecurities, fears and limitations-- I felt uncomfortable for you, as though if you'd known just how revealing you were being, you'd be horrified.
It always surprised me to see how many people disliked this film but at least I’m thankful that you didn’t straight up insult it. About the film, like you said it might feel unsatisfactory to some, and I’d argue that it’s the point. Well not because the film itself is unsatisfactory, but it’s life. It’s about all the what if’s we have in life, the chances that we passed up, do we regret what we chose and what we have? The emotions are raw and complicated, and the chracters portrayed it well and none of them were pictured as an “evil” one. The husband is actually much more mature that you might think. He’s being honest and open about his feelings and insecurities. It’s not black and white, nor a traditional happy/sad ending moive. For me and really many people who are just so cynical about the blatant/political messages that movies are trying to spoon feed us and shove into our faces, this is a gem
She is AMAZING in Past Lives, what a film.
She’s so good in Past Lives and SO FUNNY in interviews. God I love her
She is the kind of person you cannot help but wish to be like.
her sense of humor is irresistible!
Greta was so mesmerizing in Past Lives
I hope SAG members recognize her and nominate her, this is her first break and lead role in 20 years of career
She is so charismatic and amazing. I just love her.
She’s so fun and adorable 🙌
I like how she spins the bubbles thingy. I first saw her in one of Apple TV+ show, as power lady.
Stella on 'The Morning Show' - she's excellent.
Need her to get that Oscar nomination. 🙏🤞
I absolutely adore her
Fell in love with her acting in Chance
