suppose if u like to see japanese people being stereotyped, mocked and patronized, watching them being sexually tortured would be a sort of logical next step

Before Sunrise/Sunset?

Weird one, maybe too weird to be mellow and serene, but Code 46 kinda plays like a sci-fi Lost In Translation.

In The Mood For Love, obv.

Also: The Clock (D: Vincente Minnelli)

Emile Zola predicts World War I and then he dies. (R Baez), Monday, 31 October 2011 00:50 (fourteen years ago)

Un cœur en hiver aka A Heart in Winter is really beautiful.

Also, maybe try David Lean's Summertime.

Love Affair (D: Leo McCarey).

Haven't seen An Affair To Remember, it's remake, also directed by McCarey.

Something tells me The Scent Of Green Papaya would count, but I haven't seen that in forever. Dunno.

Haven't seen Denis' Friday Night - would that count as well?

North Fork by the Polish brothers - although not exactly a romance in the conventional sense

Paranormal Activity 3

Brief Encounter? Not very mellow I guess, simmering passions and all

60% of Chungking Express, probably.

La Vie rêvée des anges (The Dream Life of Angels) from 1998.

She Got the Shakes, Monday, 31 October 2011 01:38 (fourteen years ago)

Huh. Reading about the main actress from "Dream Life of Angels," I just read Bouchez lives in Beverly Hills, California with her husband Thomas Bangalter (of the electronic music duo Daft Punk). Didn't know that!
