Mondscheintarif

I really love this movie. I watched it for the first time by mere coincidence. And since then I have watched it 5 or 6 times. And this is despite the fact that I don't really like art-house cinema. The movie's plot is simple. A relationship between a man and a woman has been under the spotlight in so many movies. But the storytelling itself is so catchy that you are completely immersed in it. The film clearly shows all stages a woman in love undergoes - the emergence of sympathy, waiting for a call, preparing for a date, wrapping oneself over nothing, depression, and self-flagellation, unproven rumors and speculations that poison life. it's just a film about anthology of relationships! And, of course, the soundtracks! They are just gorgeous! I advise it to everyone - both men and women. One can find himself in the protagonist of the movie, the other can better understand the psychology of women, and possibly avoid common mistakes)

The filming is remarkably well-done. The actors are good and the story is interesting, but the camera work deserves special mention. Normally, I would say it is bad when one notices the camera work, because it must be distracting. And on the surface there are some very distracting techniques: flashes, out-of-focus areas, jitters. But I don't think that the cinematography is detrimental here. Instead it adds visual interest without interfering with the storytelling. Indeed, it even contributes to the story.

I must say that this is one really enlightening film. I saw it on TV one evening(actually I even didn't plan to watch it)and I'm really glad that I didn't have anything better to do at that time. Some time ago I saw Jean-Pierre Jeunets film "Amelie" - well this was not quite so good, but I must say pretty similar. This movie talks about womens mentality and oddities with such an irony. For a great while I laughed, but then I realized (it was kind a tragic revelation) that actually it is so so true. I really don't want to tell anything about the plot, because it's too unique, but I'm convinced that every woman should see this film, just to realize how stupid we can sometimes act...just because we think that's the right think to do. One thing I learned - DON'T THINK SO MUCH! :)

You want to know how up-to-date people live, the clothes they wear, how there flats look like? Watch "Mondscheintarif" and you will also learn how these people are caught in the rituals of their modern life, their "must"s and "mustn't"s.

"You must never call a man after your first night together! He has to call you!" - Young photographer Cora obeys and almost goes mad waiting. These people, so trendy, so much on top of society, cannot deal with such things as just talking to each other honestly. I find it really sad to think that there might be people who really live all these lies. So watch this movie and learn something about "How-not-to"...

I loved that movie and I really mean it. I saw it several times - really worthy. Very kind, hopeful, funny one. It's like manual: how to act in the modern world to reach your dream-relationship. Real woman, real little problems: whether to answer the phone or pretend to be independent. Nothing that we didn't know but the story is very well done with details, humor and that feeling "i've been through it already". When one knows that everything could be another way if he only listened carefully... Acting are wonderful and I especially liked the operator job

I rated it 8 out of ten because of my "life experience", it didn't work for me. It's still the contemporary fairy tale - and if one follows "free rules" one would fail. But probably that's why we love cinema )))

And I'm still waiting for the us release - to watch it in English
