What details of "Booming Heart" touched you?

The way the heroine gets along with her parents is very touching. Maybe past the age of first love, all I see is the way family members communicate.

For example, the dialogue between the heroine and the father, the fig tree that the father painted for her, the parents' attitude towards the two sons' love of music, and the father's care for the mentally handicapped brother. These are very moving.

Of course, looking back at the first love, those delicate feelings are well described. Changes in mood, inner expectations and unease, very vivid.

    Heart-pounding youthful childhood

  • Krista 2022-04-24 07:01:08

    Some loves are not magnificent, not heartbreaking, but still heart-wrenching. This film describes the seemingly ordinary daily things between a pair of ordinary childhood sweethearts, but they are still touching and fully appreciate the beauty of love. I think this is the beauty of the film's detailed description and sincerity.

Flipped quotes

  • Juli Baker: [on why she's interested in Bryce] I guess it's something about his eyes... or maybe his smile.

    Richard Baker: Well, what about him?

    Juli Baker: What?

    Richard Baker: You have to look at the whole landscape.

    Juli Baker: What does that mean?

    Richard Baker: A painting is more than the sum of its parts. A cow by itself is just a cow, a meadow by itself is just grass, flowers... and the sun peeking through the trees is just a beam of light, but you put them all together... and it can be magic.

  • Bryce Loski: Flat, glossy, iridescent? What the hell did that mean? And Juli Baker had always just seemed plain to me. Until now.
