Youth Without youth

Youth Without Youth (2007), it´s a fantasy drama film written and directed by Francis Ford Coppola, based on the novella of the same name by Romanian author Mircea Eliade.

It was the first film that Coppola had directed in ten years since 1997´s The Rainmaker.Coppola said that he made the film as a meditation on time and on consciousness, which he considers a "changing tapestry of illusion," but he admitted that the film may also be appreciated as a beautiful love story, or as a mystery.

 The film starring Tim Roth , introducing Dominic Matei - a 70- year old proffesor of linguistics, the love of his youth - Laura (Alexandra Maria Lara), Proffesor Stanciulescu ( Bruno Ganz).

The music was composed by Grammy Award- winning Argentinan classical composer Osvaldo Golijov.

In my opinion it ´s a very good film and also very good acting.Tim Roth , who plays Dominic Matei is excellent.When everything is stripped away,the film is about a man given a second chance at love only to find that sometimes there are choices that are as disastrous as dying alone. I can´t claim to have really understood Youth Without Youth or what Coppola was really intending to say.

In spite of the fact that it was really good film and i enjoyed it. Go and see it if you can. :)
