Shadow of a Kiss

About This Movie

Shadow of a Kiss is a curious piece from '95 that captures nostalgia in a subtle way. The story of Albert, an art dealer who stumbles upon a haunting photo of his first love, Rose, really lends itself to a reflective atmosphere. The pacing is somewhat leisurely, allowing viewers to savor Albert's emotional journey. The theme of lost love and the passage of time is palpable, almost lingering like the scent of a bygone era. While the director remains a mystery, the performances are earnest, especially in those quiet, introspective moments. It’s not flashy, but there’s something about the simplicity combined with that wistful tone that makes it intriguing, especially for those of us who appreciate the nuances of character-driven narratives.
