Review of Flashbacks of a Fool (2008) by Lisa Ann N — 21 Apr 2010
A must see movie.
I don't agree with most reviews I have read regarding this movie.
The movie has been underated - most likely by those that are either not cereberal enough to get it, or those that just don't appreciate a creative, music-intensive drama.
Being that it is a European movie, the writer / director does take some "liberties" in a couple of scenes some may not be comfortable viewing - but these scenes are short, and you are compensated with an amazing soundtrack.
The director has an extensive background in music videos, so needless to say the music backed scenes and choreograpy are amazing.
Daniel Craig proves that he is a versatile actor, and makes excellent use of body language and facial expressions to convey thought and emotion in the non-verbal scenes.
In summation, you may find this movie "takes you back" to your first-love, first-kiss, "remember when" and triggers your inner-nostalgia.
