somewhere (sophia coppola)

i'm a sucker for this kind of moody films, i love the apathy and boredom it all oozes. i know it doesn't really deliver, it kind of goes in circles or gets repetitive; and i also understand if people don't really like it or quite simply don't care about the main character, but i kind of enjoyed it. the cinematography is actually very good, and i loved the comedy bits, especially when he presents the award ceremony in italy, that was hilarious. i also appreciate that this is no big movie with a big change and a big drama. the drama was there before, and is there at the end, he's just more aware of it. that scene in the fx department where they apply the cast to his face works really well as a metaphor for the emotional isolation of the protagonist. dorf really suits the part of the scruffy good looking celebrety, and the portrait of the sensible and rather mature wee girl is really well done. so, not perfect at all, but i enjoyed some bits.

Rating: 6/10
