Still Life (I) (2013)
6/10
Only the lonely
18 April 2018
Still Life is not a movie to watch when you feel lonely or are a bit down because this movie oozes loneliness. There is not much happiness or joy, not in the characters nor in the job the main character has. Eddie Marsan did a good job playing the lonely meticulous civil servant, looking for relatives of deceased lonely people. He arranges the funerals of those ones that have nobody anymore in their lives, resulting in most cases in being the only one attending the funeral. The story is a bit monotone, but it fits the story well. Nothing wrong about the acting, you couldn't play loneliness better than this. The best part of the movie to me was the ending, very touching, and makes you think about how some people just have nobody in their lives.
