Art Museum By The Zoo (1998)

As someone who as seen A LOT of movies, I am confident that this one of my favorite films of all time. Admittedly, it’s not a very complex nor unique story; however, it’s the film’s simplicity that makes it infectiously charming.

Our two leads are the main focus of the this story, and luckily they’re interactions are never dull. Their natural chemistry and charisma are what make this film stand out amongst others in the genre. They’re just so likeable together; I could watch them for hours.

Along with our lead performances, our secondary leads out on a fine performance as both their characters’ real and fictional counterparts. The cinematography, lighting, and soundtrack all give off a warm, visceral feel.

This is the perfect film for a rainy day. It’s cozy, feel-good, and instantly rewatchable. I adore this film completely!

So this movie was difficult to rate. Truly.
I think it's more of an arthouse movie with alot of poetry and pictures that leave much to your interpretation.
Let's start with what I liked. I have to say it's the way it's filmed. The stillframes, the angles, the composition. I could tell director put alot of thought into every shot.
The choosing of light was interesting most of it being twilight or sometimes even at night.

The story, looked at without the filming does not have alot of consistency. Im pretty clear that the movie would be much worse without the art of filming.
The acting is not Masterclass. I did not get smart out of the ml. First he behaves like a giant douche and then is still douchy but also nice? A tsundere?
I just didn't like how he treated the fml ecpecially in the beginning. He was the person barging in and being a squatter.
The fml.... Meh? Not much to say, just portrayed an uninteresting character? I think she could have worked with more.

The filters being sepia and mostly on the red greenish pallette is probably not everyone's thing.

What made me like the movie in the end significantly more is the ending.
Im gonna try not to spoil here: meeting at a crosswalk from places you think you never going to visit and meeting in the middle was a really good choice for an ending.
