even though the plot was kind of weak, i don't think this movie got the credit/recognition it deserved. I mean regardless of the story, I think Daniel Craig and Harry Eden (<3) did amazing jobs
Mesmerizing, & "Takes me right back, when we were young", dancing (& more) to Roxy Music, David Bowie... "They're gods!", she says in this coming of age in the '70's movie. The song comes back to haunt at the end as past meets up w/ the present- you ache as memories & decisions made long ago render heartbreaking pain. Incredible moment. (Cool trivia bit: Beach scenes filmed in So. Africa) It's in rotation on Amer. film ch.'s. inc'g. Encore2- on 9/24, etc.
She is absoluteley beautiful singing this song and dancing I have watched it a million times. I think this is an outstanding film that should have been widely promoted for more people to enjoy.
I was a teen during these times. This scene is done so incredibly well. So understated but can make me feel so much -- makes me remember how I felt then, and how I feel now, every year growing more nostalgic for those times. Love and youth and innocence and people lost. This director is brilliant - he captured so much without overdoing it. Even the song (and the lyrics & their meaning) were well-chosen. The acting is brilliant also - so believable. This scene really touched me.
I think you put it very well. Anyone of any age can appreciate the scene- she's truly lovely, he's endearing, & all that. But to have "been them" at that time, & now be going through the recollection of those intense days (I feel it w/ the early 80's, as well) recaptures the poignancy of youth... (Wasted on the young.) Makes you want to go back.
the song is If There Is Something by Roxy Music. it's brought a tear to my since i was a kid. great use of that song. many more songs from that first Roxy album are used in another movie, Velvet Goldmine.
ONE OF THE BEST SCENES FROM ANY MOVIE. IT IS SO DEEPLY TOUCHING. I was a few yrs younger than them in '75 & don't recall this song - it really affected me when I saw it. They are absolutely fabulous in this scene. It made me feel like a teen again - the innocence of their age when one really believed that true love was possible, that if one liked someone they felt the same way and that one could never get hurt. Makes me cry, feel nostalgic and joyful. Beautifully acted and filmed - well done!
I have no idea why i like this scene, i've watched it over and over again after seeing the film for the first time last night. it just makes me smile and wish I could go back in time knowing what I know now and do it differently.
What a combination....... perfect song.... perfect girl...... i love so much the first part "shake your head...." ... i think its epic.... the beauty face of felicity singing the song with the air in her hair,..... really perfect.... really beauty
This scene made me feel quite like I used to feel when watching Velvet Goldmine. This good, nostalgic feeling towards a time I (unfortunately) didn't live. Love it so much!
she's a goddess....tremendous scene....powerful....awesome...there's no words to explain how this scene is amazing...for sure my favorite ..great movie, .....when you're young.........................
Thanks so much for this post. I saw this film last night and this song has "glued" to my head. This scene is touching, beautifully acted, gracious and anthological. I loved this movie, "Flashbacks of a Fool".
Hey! I saw your commentary on this video, and I watched this movie last night too. On Telecine, right? Isn't this scene the most incredible thing you've ever watched?
Oh yeah, it was on Telecine. The whole movie touched me, but paticularly this one scene - it reminded me when I was on my teens, too. I didn't know this Roxy Music song, but it got me right away...
Yeah, I didn't know this Roxy Music song either, and as a teenager, I wish other young people could enjoy this kind of music. So I just dance by myself! Haha :]
I tried to find this song just song like this in the movie but the song I found was all country style and I didn't like it! Do anyone know where I can find this version?
Watch this movie when you are 70 years Young as I am>>>>It will be a much more significant experience. We each have our moments of Flashbacks of BEING a Fool!
Easily could choose, David Bowie all the way!
