The cinematography is gorgeous.
The colors are soft and the composition is like that of an old painting.
The sound of this movie is equally perfect.
The scratching of a pencil on paper.
The sound of the brush against the canvas.
The breathing of two lovers.
The cracking of a fire.
It creates a very intimate atmosphere.
It's all just wonderful.
I think this movie would make for a great double-feature with "Call Me by Your Name".
They both have similar visual styles, a similar tone and many similar scenes, and both are just beautiful.
I don't think I would watch both back to back though. My heart is not strong enough.
