Rented and watched "The Five Senses" last night X , that you recommended, and thouroughly enjoyed the movie...
without going overboard , liked the very real ways it explored the deeper essence of who we are, the elements we share , when placed in trying circumstances.
...we open up sometimes to see a larger hidden world opened up. much that can be shared , we all can share if there was a route opened up. What we all thought we saw of ourselves , was only touching the surface of the pool.
Not over-long , with interesting characters, especially touching to me was the French Doctor who upon being told his sense of hearing was being lost , he goes on a quest, of just hearing things perhaps for the last time,and finds that touching "someone" towards the end who shows him there other things to hear in the vibrating of our own hearts.
It was a nice touch , throughout all the other interwoven scenes to find the good doctor just leaning up against a wall , eyes closed .... just listening ever so much more intently and hearing "sounds" , which for him might possibly be for the last time.
Kept getting that same thrilling sense of the way I felt when watching "Wings of Desire" , when the Angels were standing close to us , just watching and listening....what is it they were seeing and hearing in us ?
very nice film.
thanks for recomending it X...
