Like Someone in Love (2012)

Like Someone in Love (ライク・サムワン・イン・ラブ) is just perfection. It's the Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami's last film, and it's made entirely in Japan. This is haunting, hypnotic, quietly tragic filmmaking. My colleague said it's like Ozu crossed with Hitchcock, and I think he's absolutely right. This was just so wonderful. I loved it.
