Review of The Loneliest Planet (2012) by Dennis M — 11 Mar 2013

This is a timeless story of life and death and love. I was sincerely.

Curious to see why the talented Gael Garcia Bernal was playing the role.

Of a quiet yet playful, sensual and adventurous Mexican-American.

Traveling with his girlfriend through Georgia; An hyperactive.

Eccentric, and cultured, red haired eastern European/American.

At the beginning of the adventure. you can tell how they are melted.

With each other, they are sensual and playful. Their bodies find joy in.

Every corner of the trip. Their intentions to travel into the unknown.

Seem to be aligned.

After they leave the urban sprawl, nature seems to have slowed their.

Need for sensuality. The director tunes into Nature as well. The.

Respect for long silences, gives the spectator an opportunity to.

Appreciate the slowness and continuum of the ecosystem. The water, the.

Erosion, an abandoned old house, the sound of a rock falling down the.

Hill, the change in flora and landscape.

This deep silence can be disturbing in the era of constant stimulation.

And brain noise.

The purity of the film's message is appreciated in a time where we are.

Bombarded by cultural biasses and empty dramas. The film allows the.

Viewer to receive a simple yet profound story of life and death. It.

Depicts a multi-cultural journey into the phenomenon of the clash of.

Civilizations. An alegoria of a the hunter-gather phenomena. Of.

Survival of the fittest. Of the need for nurture and human connection.

And the present gender and cultural archetypes that are yet present.

Across cultures.
