Review of Love in Thoughts (2004) by Ali J — 12 May 2008
Beautiful, moody, sultry-paced tale of love, jealousy and growing up in 1920s Germany. Once again Daniel Bruhl is amazing - he and the rest of the cast excellently understated which suits the mood of the film.
The feel and ambience of the hot summer are conveyed with great effect, both in the literal portrayal of the weather, but also as a metaphor for the passionate and emotional undercurrent of story. Great movie! Good sideburn rating: 5/10 -The1920s are not great for sideburns, but some marks are awarded for the foppish hairstyles that go some way to creating hirsuitness.
Presence of sartorially elegant men: 9/10 - The 1920s IS sartorial elegance. This film had lashings of young, attractive chaps in so much gorgeous get-up, even their jim-jams were stylish.
