Distant Voices, Still Lives

The movie wasn't exactly how i picture it would be in my head. I did find it interesting though, even though some of the parts just plain confused me. it was interesting how they didn't do it in chronological order. it keep me on my feet and awake in a sense, like usually in movies you know whats going to happen so your focus is less on the movie but with it flashing back and forward, it definitely keeps you on your toes. it also makes you feel like if you miss one part then you get lost in total but i like movies like that a lot more. the movie remind me of that show "LOST" on ABC. how they have you all over the place and doesn't stay in one order. Comparing it to La Jetee, i like this movie a lot more. La Jetee was more dull to my taste compare to this one. it was very slow and i guess i like more action going on and with it switching scenes every couple of minutes, definitely caught my attention.

  1. Of course, I don't know that you really need to connect things or figure out chronology here...the kind of overlaps between vignettes are more based in an emotional logic than a chronological one.
