This should be called Lao Wuyi... Can you say that this is the only romance film that Quentin has made? When I was young, Quentin didn't like the babbled lines. The older I got, the more I liked the logic and flavors in the long and seemingly boring lines. The whole movie is all about the helplessness and discouragement of every character who is old and helpless.
It's really like watching a romance movie. There are few emotional dramas, but they are moving. Love is not just a catharsis, it is a faint little love, a little ambiguous, and unexplained reluctance.
