SFIFF 56: Me and You

This production from Bernardo Bertolucci shows the master's touch in all departments, including, and this surprised me a bit, his deft evocation of youthful ennui, which was subtle, intimate, confident.  Even the 80's sounds (Bowie, The Cure) had a contemporary retro-hipness about them, and the rewritten lyric to Space Oddity was for me the perfect moment in the film, so beautiful was it and so pertinent to the characters in their present predicament.  But there was something missing nevertheless - a feeling of whatever at the heart of things - again, not inappropriate given the (youthful) subject, but not in the end what I look for in films.
