Family, love, destiny, these are the main themes of this film which really knows how to get straight to the heart. Dan Folgeman, creator of one of the most beautiful TV series of recent years, "This is us", takes us back to the atmosphere of the series, leading us into a moving and human film, where destiny is the true protagonist. We are shown the strange way in which everything, even the darkest events, lead us to exactly where and with whom we should be, how one event in our life, however small or large, can change the entire course of our individual history and also expand to those who are not only next to us, but also to those who only touch us for a moment. In this beautiful journey which is nothing other than a self-celebration of life and all its nuances, Time out of mind by Bob Dylan acts as the pilot who guides the actions and thoughts of an extraordinary cast. The film tells the story of Will (Isaac) and Abby (Wilde), from their first meeting in college, to the two falling in love, marriage, the birth of a child and the sudden separation that Will doesn't want to understand. Little by little we are shown the bond with the young and tormented Dylan (Cooke), passing through Mr. Saccione (Banderas), a rich Italian-Spanish landowner. This intertwining of lives reaches up to the family of Saccione's right-hand man Javier (Peris-Mencheta). Divide the film into chapters, discover everything little by little, exactly as happens in life, which resembles a puzzle to be put together piece by piece. There is no more pertinent metaphor than this. Read all
