That's the tagline for the 2014 movie 'Spring', which I'd never heard of until a few weeks ago when @Tyler raved about it. Being that I trust his judgment about 80% of the time, I figured I had to see it when @cyborg was also taken aback by it, so I just finished the damn movie... and what a beautiful fucking movie it was!
Spring is a movie defined by the cinematagraphy, and the strong sense of general beauty the film exudes through imagery, music, and themes. The story is about Evan (Lou Taylor Pucci), who faces an existential dilemma when his mother dies and he consequently travels to Italy to escape the mental turmoil, only to find more of it when he meets the girl of his dream, Louise (Nadia Hilker). This is a film you want to go into relatively blindly, because the performances and drive of the film make it easy to get invested in, and it will all be worthwhile in the end. Perhaps the best movie of 2014.
