Review of Charlie Countryman (2013) by Nathaniel M — 08 Dec 2014
Charlie Countryman is the type of movie that makes you want to be in love. I can still hear M83's "Intro" echoing around the gash ghetto cityscape of Bucharest. Two people from completely different origins: American and Romanian are brought together by death.
We all have a feeling in our heart sometimes that will lead us down a path we shouldn't necessarily go down, and we agree with that in our minds. Humans in this society find it difficult to follow their hearts and instead choose what is logical.
Charlie does not see this. He sees a girl with an open wound and is empathetic. Tragedy strikes this Gabi in the worst place possible but we soon find that Gabi's pain and Charlie's pain bring love.
The type of love that seems too perfect to leave to chance. It requires work and dedication. Charlie Countryman makes you want to be in love.
