Teo Yoo's performance blew me away. Just the longing and sadness he is able to convey with his eyes. And some of his lines towards the end broke me. At the very least, the script needs to be nominated for best screenplay.

Teo Yoo was the standout for me. The emotions he was able to convey just with his face. From the moment he saw her in Central Park to the ending scene, my heart shattered to a million pieces.

The quick cut at the end showing them as kids was sublime. Gave me chills. There they are once again the two kids standing together but also apart on their divergent paths. The memory now in nighttime mirroring their present was beautiful visual poetry. A realization that their feelings for each other can only exist in a time and space both real and imaginary. Kudos to Celine Song.

Just saw this movie today, left the theatre shattered and crying. I won't be able to think about a lot of other things for a week or more because this has deeply impacted me. Greta Lee doesn't cry but sure does know how to make us cry watching her. Celine Song, you are lovely. The score and cinematography was also surreal. This is definitely the best film i've seen yet so far for 2023 and it logs into the top 5 of the films that i love the most. Also, mah man TEO YOO, the emotion that you convey with your eyes, ❤.

I think at the very end... Hae Sung found closure. He was never rude to Nora during the entire film... but while waiting for the Uber on the final scene, he tells Nora "You are the one who always leaves". I never left". This is absolutely true as Nora leaves him as children to go to Canada and then she leaves him again when reconnected 12 years after to focus on her career. Those words from Hae Sung broke her (literally) when she (once again) becomes a "crybaby" in the arms of Arthur. A second watch is a must on this particular movie to piece everything together. Hae Sung leaves on the Uber without looking back. He knows he can now finally move on back in Seoul after finding closure. She is the one that will now struggle with guilt, regret and sadness. I think this movie is very deep and extraordinary. I hope it wins an Oscar.

This is by far my favorite film of 2023, and the last time I felt this strong for a movie was.... Everything Everywhere All at Once. I do hope that it will get quite an Oscar run and hopefully win a few.

This is so real. It’s such a simple story that’s told so beautifully through these performances and some amazing camera work. The long one-takes were astounding, especially, like you mentioned, at the end - walking to the Uber pickup, standing there and looking at each other - walking back. That sequence was told with such a meaningful collection of so few shots where the tension was broken exactly once (when he finally looked away) (I gasped out loud). There are a hundred reasons this simple love triangle story is getting so much Oscar buzz.

I'm already anticipating this movie so much, can't wait to be emotionally devastated in a theater

Just saw this movie for the first time after months of anticipation, and yeah. All the critics are right, this movie is a masterpiece. I'm seeing it again in half an hour!

Celine Song's father is Song Neung-han, the director who directed "Number 3" Korean Gangster film in 1997 that appears to be quite excellent. And the casts were Han Suk-kyu (Christmas in August), Song Kang-ho (Parasite), Choi Min-sik (Oldboy).

I’ve been searching for Teo Yoo films/drama to watch - I’m really looking forward to seeing this

count on A24 to always deliver the asian excellence, my most anticipated movie this year for sure

Greta Lee and Teo Yoo for Best Actress and Actor 💕

This is not hyberbole, this may end up in my Top 10 favorite movies all time. It affected me that much.

I saw a play by Celina Song in 2020 called "Endlings" and it was one of the most mind-blowing, bonkers things I've seen. And pretty hilarious - though it doesn't sound like this one has as much humor. Really excited for this!

Needs to win Best Original Screenplay. Its a shame A24 didnt release it wide cause I have friends who wanted to see it but didnt have time to drive an hour to a theater to see it im licky I did. I cried more after.

Subdued, nuanced, delicate. Yet profound and deeply affecting. Nominations for all three actors.

I’m hoping Past Lives will be like Aftersun was for me last year. Coincidentally, both are from A24.

This is my favorite movie of the year. I was wondering if Saltburn would surpass it, but I saw it and it didn't. I haven't seen Poor Things yet, so we'll see.

I just watched this. This had such a clear throughline. It was wonderfully shot and acted and scored. It was so profound and heartbreaking and so… authentic

TAE YOO DESERVES AN ACTING NOD OMG

Watched it today and loved it, walking out emotionally shaken (and still am). The movie's ending, and to some extent the "In-Yeon" theme, reminded me of another great romance movie made in Taiwan called "You're the Apple of My Eye". ​Anecdotally, this applies to friendships too. I grew up with my childhood buddy whose half-Korean, until he immigrated to the US (abruptly due to family issues) at around 15yr old and like in the movie, we lost in touch for a while and I went on to study in a different country, and also "stalked" him on Friendster (pre-Facebook era) before we managed to establish connection to keep in touch. Like in the movie, we finally got to meet after more than a decade of not seeing each other, in Seoul! We are still good friends to this day. Definitely a lot of bittersweet knowing that neither of us are going to give up our own lives to be with the other.

I saw this film a few days ago and absolutely adored it!

I'm so pissed how this film isn't available for digital screenings at Sundance. It sounds right up my alley.

Nailed it guys. On point as usual. I feel like the score will also get awards recognition, among the other more obvious noms

Predicting this as the next Aftersun in 2024 Awards Season.

I'm so happy to see some Korean spirits in film industry these days. As you guys say it's so good I'm super excited about this movie!

Adding this to my Oscar list

Oh a24 is carrying this year asian representation on THEIR BACK. And they could be doing it again next year too. We love to see it.

I envy you guys for watching those movies so early.

How lame would that be if the only nominated actor from this film is the white dude but then I remember Blackkklansman.

Excited for it but hesitant to predict Oscar noms yet

Can't wait to see this one at Berlinale next month

“It’s time to review future best picture nominee past lives”

when A24 has 4 contenders this year

I think I have to watch it and I'll add it to my watch list.

grizzly bear did the music?! im fucking in

Great film indeed.

I'm gonna be watching this movie many a times in my lifetime. A beautiful movie through and through. This is a raw movie. The ending is so so beautiful. Oscars totally got this movie wrong i guess. Celine could've gotten the director nomination. Greta Lee should have been in Best Actress replacing Annette Bening because that performance didn't hold a candle to Greta's performance. No matter what people say. Even John Magaro deserved a supporting actor nomination. Should've gotten cinematography, score , editing. But ultimately I'm happy in a year with such competition it managed to get 2 nomination speaks volumes. I'm happy. It's gonna be my personal favourite movie.

This looks like a really good one ☺️ I'm excited for it; I love movies like this

9/10

This movie is my favorite movie of this year also...

I'd love to see it, looking forward to it

A24 is doing it well

Just saw the trailer for the 1st time and WOW, it looks so lovely.

can’t fucking wait

so hyped for this one!!

Hope it isn't a The Farwell

love Greta Lee

I wouldn't give it a 10. But it is still a beatuiful film. I thought this film could have worked better as a short film. The best part for me was the quick cut at the end... the "flashback" style was very K-drama-ish...

3:41 They are communicating those things bcz they hav missed all those times they could communicate those through actions and their presence here is consciously shortlived. I hope it resolves your only issue.

where can i watch this muvy in India..??????

Teo Yoo's eyes convey so much. Very restrained and wistful and always longing. I see a Tony Leung's level of acting there. Teo Yoo's eyes can take over the acting. Greta Lee has screen presence but her acting, while good, is less special.

So this is like minari mixed with before midnight

omg Kai from New Girl

So this is like Us and them

On it!

She doesnt cheat does she?

Was not sure about this one. It was kind of slow and not the most original. I do not think he should have visited her in New York after she was married. Hopefully, a more original and entertaining movie wins best picture. Another movie will win my personal best picture for sure!

So he’s dying of cancer right?

Bro. Tomorrow most difficult exam. Bro. I'm so close to finish it. LETSSSSS GOOOOOOOO DJSIHSISBSIBAIABBIAAOSONDOBXBXUD SUCCESSSSSSSS COME ON BOYS WE GOT THIS XODBISBSIABOAMPNSODNODNISBSI IDBIS 2 MORE AND THEN WE ARE DONE. FOREVER.

Coming from someone who gave 4/5 stars to Dear Evan Hansen 😅 dafuq man

lmao it is nowhere as good as call me by your name

I thought this was good but it was no where near spiderverse good. Spiderverse almost made me cry.... this movie was... too predictable. Everything u experienced to happen happens. Now, if she was robbed after the Uber drives away or she actually leaves with him or he moves to New York, then you're actually doing something. Instead it's the very classic what if and now there's nothing we can do based on our current stances. And don't forget, the ongoing thing is that she is a "cry baby" so when she cries at the end, that's unfortunately just her being too overemotional. So idk for me... 6/10. I did like it, I think its good, but I did think it even deserves one oscar. I will say this is this years mank or first man, it's the favorite right now but by the time January comes along it'll be something else. And once again, if flower moon wins I'll be pissed. Apple tv!TV!! I still haven't seen Coda.

The male lead was awful. The female lead needed to be more charismatic. The whole thing felt very lazy and hampered by the numbers directing choices. The visuals were stunning. Props to the cinematography. The American dude was awesome. This will be forgotten in one year without any major awards. It made you wish you were watching one of those movies it borrowed from that were 100x better: Before Sunrise, Aftersun, Eternal Sunshine…
