Yes, magical. Magical if you are constantly contemplative and have always wondered about life...even as you hurdle through life...but wish we could all just slow down and talk about it. This is what this film was.
Sublime and subdued performances by John Cho and Haley Lu Richardson. Since Cho had only previously been in madcap lunacy or large production sci-fi and Richardson had been a relatively unknown, their performances as directed by Kogonada can be described as "breakthrough." The cinematography was equally paced, showcasing the architecture, look, feel of Columbus beautifully.
Well worth the time and effort to sit through. An amazing look at life, how we love, sacrifice, and just being. Highly recommended!
