Not going to comment on the
Yellowface debacle in Cloud Atlas.
That said? I loved the movie. It was sweet, it was simple, it was tragic. I love how all the stories wove in with each other, building to a crescendo that reached across the skies. The sweetness of each story, the bitterness of some endings, the hope of others, all these are beautiful, beautiful things. I was swept away by the stories. There is something beautiful, bittersweet, and hopeful, especially about the end, even if parts of the movie was censored.
Shall I watch it again? Definitely. Is it a story worth listening to? Yes, many times.
Now… how do I get the music? ;3
