Stafford Film Theatre: Past Lives
PAST LIVES
Celine Song / USA, South Korea 2023 / 105 min / Cert 12
Writer and director Celine Song's first feature is a veritable tour de force. It tells the tale of two South Korean childhood sweethearts Nora (Greta Lee) and Have (Sung Teo Yoo) who are painfully separated when Nora's parents move to Toronto. After years apart their lives intertwine again, but by now Nora is in a relationship with Arthur (John Magaro). Song brings us an achingly beautiful love story, but this thoughtful film offers much more; it is an exploration of how people change over distance and time. Beautiful camera work and a sublimely understated soundtrack complement the sub=tle portrayal of emotions by all three principals, resulting in a totally absorbing film.
The screening takes place on Tuesday 5th March at The Gatehouse in Stafford. The programme starts at 7.30pm and the feature at 7.45pm.
