@cesldmsncom It is an exciting but sort of unsettling thought to imagine that someone who looks/acts/thinks like you is out there in the world but you don't know them...

I have never met my biological father- my mom never told who he is- so I can relate to her feelings...

how about if I have siblings- somewhere...

Anger, pain, and sorry work for such a face so stunning. She is a directors dream, the scene is perfect, the medium is flawless. Wonderfull film.

@HerrCrowmann That is beautifully said. I think you are right, and had your finger on one of the core subjects of this movie.

I loved this movie and specially this scene had a great aeffect on me. The music of course was, what can I say, Haunting, like all Preisner's soundtracks of the movies: BLUE, DAMAGE, WHITE $ RED. Now his latest work is for the movie: "THE TREE OF LIFE," Starring Brad Pitt and SEan Penn. The movie got the PALM D'ORE at last years's Cannes Film Festival for the Best Picture. He is one of our greatest composers and the music he makes for the movies are so unique and will stay with you for ever

I haven't seen this movie in many years, but I never forgot this haunting scene. The idea of having a twin somewhere in the world or universe is a fascinating but slightly ominous interest for me. I've seen similar plots on The Twilight Zone and it kind of creeps me out a bit. This was a really good movie though, it doesn't get talked about that much.

[HerrCrowmann]

This makes you realise that you're not alone in the world, that somewhere else at this very moment someone is going through everything you're going through, thinking the same things as you, laughing when you do, sighing when you do, dreaming when you do. They resemble you uncannily, as if they are your reflection in the flesh. And yet, for reasons beyond your control, you never see them face to face. You only imagine them, and they imagine you.

Maybe she's a gemini?
