Review of 35 Shots of Rum (2009) by Rob J — 03 Jan 2010
An elliptical movie about the unspoken bonds between people either in relationships or wanting to be. Be warned, this movie contains little in the way of narrative structure or even obvious plot points. Its art house; its French; its not for everyone.
This is a film about knowing when to let go. Yet, nothing much happens - Lionelâ??s colleague retires, Noeâ??s cat dies - but there are hints throughout that the time has come for all these people to let go: for Lionel to let his daughter go, for Josephine to leave home, for Noe to free himself from his past.
