Posthumous

The film is a quirky romantic comedy that follows a struggling artist named Liam Price, played by Jack Huston. After a failed exhibit and some misunderstandings, people mistakenly believe he has died, leading to a newfound fame that he never really wanted. Enter a charismatic art dealer, played by the talented Britt Robertson, who is determined to capitalize on Liam's accidental notoriety.

What I loved about Posthumous is its exploration of the fickle nature of fame, especially in the art world. Wang's storytelling shines through with sharp wit and a good dose of humor, making it an entertaining watch. The scenes in Berlin give the film a vibrant backdrop, beautifully contrasting Liam's internal struggles with the lively city around him. The chemistry between Liam and his love interest adds a nice layer to the plot, making you root for their connection while Liam learns to navigate his unexpected fame. The writing is clever, and there are some genuinely hilarious moments sprinkled throughout.

While the film may not have the depth of The Farewell, it still captures Lulu Wang's knack for weaving cultural themes and personal growth into her narratives.

You know all those little and not so little questions we all have? About life, and art, and existence, and happiness, and meaning and meaningless, and whether sometimes is worth it, and what it would entail for you to sacrifice in order to obtain that which is important? And then, how important is it anyway? This is a movie about that. All of that. I know nothing about cinematography and it's techniques, about the takes and angles, and movements and captures. I am just a viewer, a random bystander and I'm reviewing this tittle as such. It is in one word beautiful.

It captured my attention, evoked my thoughts and feelings, made me root for these characters, hoping for the best. It has such an interesting premise of what happens after we die. Does our name echoes after we perish? Did we accomplished anything extraordinary, worth mentioning and worshiping? It's about art, and it's meaning and creativity. It's about love and understanding. It's a way of understanding life and one's wishes and desires in a slightly philosophical way I'm a sucker for.

I loved that artistic approach, I loved the music, I loved how atmospheric the movie is, and I loved its quirkiness and sort of lightness.

I've yet to watch Brit Marling's movie I don't like, and Jack Huston is such a perfect choice, it seems, for those artistic weirdos, both in this movie and as Jack Kerouac in "Kill Your Darlings". Brilliant.

I decided to watch this film immediately I saw that Brit Marling acts in it, and certainly, I wasn't disappointed. In this movie the breathtaking beauty of this actress can be tested again, as it was in "Another Earth" or in "The East". And it's not only her gorgeous face what captivated my sight, also her performance took me into the deepest emotional side of my mind, not for crying, of course, but honestly, in every time I've seen her acting, I felt in love of her character. This film lets the viewer not only to have a nice romantic moment, such as anyone can get in any classical movie from Hollywood. Instead, its value is due to the topics that are treated on it; to be with someone that loves you is not enough, he or she has to be your biggest fan. To have someone to be with is amazing, but also its desirable if that person makes you explore your most creative parts of yourself. What would anyone prefer, happiness or greatness? If the most recognized artists' lives are read, you can find out that they weren't happy.

It a shame that there is very few reviews about this fantastic movie.

I am becoming a fan of Brit Marling as watching her works. There is always some sort of mystery behind stories that i have so far seen played by Brit Marling. This movie is not a difference. While it seems as an ordinary comedy movie. But it is not. There is some mystery behind it.

The movie makes you think. It combines different senses, those senses that you may not realize their existing. It is not a pure love story neither a Drama.

The other thing the i realize is its similarities with the titanic movie. Not the story itself, but some feelings that you get with titanic. I hope you see this too.

It is also worth noting that while the movie seems predictable, it has some lovely surprises.

Good work.

The Pandora express.. very soothing style of storytelling, the story is simple (kind of) but I felt it to be beautifully told..

A misunderstanding starts the story through which the protagonist starts to receive what he thought he always wanted.. by the end of the story he got what he never knew he was missing..

I felt the film explores the idea of ambitions and desires, how these contradict but either doesn't necessarily be a bad thing and how they amends with time and become something different..

The music is beautiful. The acting is ordinary. It has a happy ending.

A certain secondary character felt neglected by the film.

Ignoring that and considering it's just 93mins it is most definitely worth a watch.

I recommend it for people of all age groups. Thumbs Up,
