FILM REVIEWED BY DONNA DEAL, a reader of The IntrovertZCoach
Nina ( Juliet Stevenson) loses her true love, Jamie (the
glorious Alan Rickman), through a freak illness. The beginning
of the film is the exact replication of what introverts experience
in grief. Nina is the introvert. She misses work, has trouble
connecting with people, looks at trees and clouds, and remembers
Jamie's stunning cello music. She connects with a pregnant
Spanish woman she befriends as her teacher and translator.
The
film gets "odd" when Jamie returns as a ghost, and
Nina and he have a time of togetherness, in their apartment,
the introvert way. But life goes on.... Nina meets another
introvert, a teacher of disabled adults, and they begin an
introverted relationship where neither one will impose on
the other. But there is joy as the film ends, comic joy.
An
introverts delight- especially those who have a quiet, twisted
sense of humor.
