Does your life happen once or infinitely many times? Which is easier to bear.

I love how Phillip Kaufman edits his shots into the historical footage.

I especially like 2 movies - Unbearable Lightness and Mississipi Masala...

The Connection? Sabina goes to California & Mina goes to Alabama...

I don't understand. How is it possible for the sound effects to be in sync, but the voices not?

I wanted to watch this, but it's impossible with this sound track.

@Pawn1787 Walter Murch.

@jgrab1 Right. In other words, Kundera is an idiot.

I wept when I finished reading the book

The film................I am afraid I couldnt help myself!

@CKconcerts I love the film and the novel, so I'd still recommend seeing it. It's different. Not "better," not "worse," but different. It has to be. A movie is not a novel. A novel is not a movie.

@jgrab1 that's really helpful.. I have been debating whether or not to watch the film after reading the novel a few years ago.

I don't know.... this novel has been in my head for 4 years , is a masterpiece, but I'm not sure about the movie.Maybe because that's not how I imagine Theresa or Thomas.Anyway ,let's see how it goes xD
