Itβs that thing when youβre with someone, and you love them and they know it, and they love you and you know itβ¦ but itβs a partyβ¦ and youβre both talking to other people, and youβre laughing and shiningβ¦ and you look across the room and catch each otherβs eyesβ¦ but - but not because youβre possessive, or itβs precisely sexualβ¦ but becauseβ¦ that is your person in this life. And itβs funny and sad, but only because this life will end, and itβs this secret world that exists right there in public, unnoticed, that no one else knows about. Itβs sort of like how they say that other dimensions exist all around us, but we donβt have the ability to perceive them. Thatβs - Thatβs what I want out of a relationship. Or just life, I guess.
Frances Ha (2012) β Written and Directed by Noah Baumbach
