Flashbacks of a Fool

Flashbacks of a Fool is one of my favorite movies. To be honest I don’t know why.

I think each of us experience movies in different ways, and as far as I’m concerned this movie carries the “At its core, human life is pure suffering.” kind of vibe. It’s hard for me to tell what aspects of the film making make this happen; the story, the background score, the characters, or whatever. Every time I watch it it makes me happy and extremely sad at the same time.

The following is the ending scene. It is so pure. Everything about it perfect, and absolutely sad, and the actress that breaks down crying did an incredibly good job of expressing it without words.

There’s no dialogue in this scene even in the movie, as in this clip.
