6What people say
the way this film builds so much tension in how it forces us to watch time tick away, causing us to say to ourselves “so far, so good. so far, so good”. until the ending hits with a thud. because it’s all about the fall. and because we all know & live the story – the way it circles back & always stays relevant, the falling never ends.
this is the Paris I want to see Emily in.
