Something Real and Good (2013)
Nice little piece of art
I saw this movie the other day, at home, choosing this brand new tittle over like fifty others waiting for a first watch. The reason I chose this one is simple. The poster and the tittle talk about human relationships, traveling and maybe - just maybe - love. That's enough for me.
I have to say that no one could honestly say this is a great movie. It doesn't have to be either. It's just a nice little story trying to find its place. And it does find its place, as long as one can figure out how fascinating is to depict yourself in the eyes of a stranger.
Everyone is a stranger in an airport. This story deals with this simple truth, and keeps it simple. Simple and warm. As the dialogue, as the tone. Words and ideas are the main theme here. Everything else is left aside, specially sophistication or cynicism.
The result, from my point of view, is a nice little piece of art, of true human contact, of genuinely funny entertainment. The boy and the girl talk about themselves, and may discover something in the way. Does anyone ask for more in a production like this? Not me.
