It starts with "a bit of magic. A bit of smoke..." and a beautifully old-fashioned Cole Porter's "Night and day" melody.
Nothing is clear till the end in this film. And even after it, you keep guessing what one or another detail hides. You can interpret it as you like and you always will be right. But the film is not about that.
It is about love. And mostly all the movies are about that. "How common and banal" one may think and he will be right: it's mostly exploited and depicted theme both in movies and other medias. But don't hurry to judge the "poor" theme for being so popular. Probably there is a reason for it. It's not because that easy to speak about human relationships, probably it's because this topic is so exciting and really important.
Usually it doesn't matter that a movie is about banal things like love. It doesn't really that matter about what, it is more important how it is expressed. And probably, the combination of what&how is mostly important.
You won't get straight answers there. You won't be told when the feeling between the man and woman in movie starts and when it ends. You'll start to think, that you know how clear it is, but you will be confused.
And you will always be reminded about that it's all a film. it's all a construction. But it still hurts. Did it hurt?
