Like Someone In Love
Dubbed in : JAP ( Original )
Master filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami travels even further afield from his native Iran for this mysteriously beautiful romantic drama filmed entirely in Japan. Like Someone in Love revolves around the brief encounter between an elderly professor and a sociology student (Rin Takanashi) who moonlights as a high-end escort. Dispatched to the old man by her boss - one of the professor's former students - the young woman finds her latest client less interested in sex than in cooking her soup, talking, and playing old Ella Fitzgerald records. Eventually, night gives way to day and a tense standoff with the student's insanely jealous boyfriend; but as usual in Kiarostami, nothing is quite as it appears on the surface. Are these characterswho conjure in one another the specters of regret and roads not takenmeeting by chance, or is it fate? Is this love, or merely something like it?
