I loved this trippy time-bending romance with stunning photography, chosen because of its stars Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell and particularly for its director Kogonada, though, like his last movie After Yang, it's a bit too dreamy for Jack's taste. The cast includes Kevin Kline, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Jennifer Grant, Hamish Linklater, the voice of Jodie Turner-Smith, and many more.
Seth Reiss wrote the original screenplay, Joe Hisaishi composed the lovely score, now playing on my computer from Apple Music. We have Benjamin Loeb to thank for the beautiful cinematography.
Robbie was last blogged for Barbie, Farrell for The Banshees of Inisherin, Kogonada, Turner-Smith, and Loeb for After Yang, Kline for the live action version of Beauty and the Beast, Waller-Bridge for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Linklater for Nickel Boys, Reiss for The Menu, and Hisaishi for The Wind Rises. Grant, the daughter of Cary Grant and Dyan Cannon, is new to me, though she's worked a fair amount.
Critics from Rotten Tomatoes do not want the journey, with an ugly average of 37%, and its audiences aren't much prettier at 58. We rented it on November 4. If you choose to trust me over the aforementioned critics, stay and listen for an audio bonus at the end.
