Review of I Am Love (2010) by Dean M — 11 Nov 2010

I can't describe the power of this film, and I can't stop thinking about it either. If you like people more than stories. If you want to see film-making at its most graceful and organic and inventive, if you want a musical score that will turn a sidelong glance into an operatic overture, then this is the movie for you.

It is a baroque masterwork. A cathedral of a film. Cold as stone but inspiring the soul. Tilda Swinton is a goddess. She says so little, but communicates so much. There's an entire ocean of emotion inside or her, spilling out of her eyes.

I cried twice at this film. Once because of the subject matter and then again at the delicacy of the film-making.
