Review of Flight of the Red Balloon (2007) by Xavier G — 10 Nov 2008

I haven't seen the original version of this movie. but so far I like it, the way it flows, u wouldn't even notice that's this is a movie, the way all dialogues go is so natural. the warmth of this charming lovable movie is everywhere to be found.

but for some, this movie could make u bored, but for audience who love festival movies, then this one is without a doubt a must watch movie. Juliette Binoche played it so well, being the single mother who has to take care of every little details, so much to pay attention for that she forget to take care of herself.

u get the sense of deep sadness whenever she's doing some little conversation or when she's quiet, even when she's quiet she still thinks that she needs to take things and so she puts the sadness aside and just fully focus on her children.

this is one beautiful movie.
