RESTLESS

September 16th, 2011

RESTLESS- 2011. Synopsis by Netflix. “After she is diagnosed with a disease that will soon claim her life, a young girl (Mia Wasikowska) strikes up an unusually strong friendship with a boy (Henry Hopper) who deals with the problems in his own troubled family by attending funerals. As their relationship deepens into love, the two discover a curious connection to the spirit of a World War II kamikaze pilot (Ryo Kase). Gus Van Sant directs this touching drama.”

9/16/11- Weak review in today’s NY Times. TRDB.

2/2/12- The weak reviews were pretty accurate. I’m not sure why I saw the entire movie– I guess hoping it would get better and some interest in the quirkiness. TRDB. Netflix.
