Yeah yeah, everyone knows the pottery scene, but seriously, this movie is amazing. The story is incredibly well written, so it’s no surprise that Bruce Joel Rubin won the Oscar for it. And this has one of the best one line descriptions: “After a young man is murdered, his spirit stays behind to warn his lover of impending danger, with the help of a reluctant psychic.” How can you not be pulled into this story. I’m also a sucker for amazing set design, sign me up for their soaring loft apartment. It’s a character in and of itself and verges on church-like. The chemistry of the cast is infectious, and beautifully moves between humor, heartbreak, terrible dread, and hope. Revisit this movie.
