Jump Tomorrow (2001)
Humble, lasting impression
I've given up trying to rank movies with anything systematic or consistent. Now, all i ask myself is, what did i feel? Something about this movie had tremendous heart, and feeling, and it stayed with me well after the credits. Most likely it was Jorge and his earnest efforts at love. He's such a quirky, odd, adorable character.
The comedy is not self conscious, and is mainly poker face Jorge trying his heart out to win people over. I love following characters like Jorge, people who don't need Hollywood explosions and sex scenes to tell the audience what he is feeling or what he's about. It's the subtle gestures, the way he hip checks the girl in the face when he leaves the boat, or the way he puts on a tie, these nuances say everything about him. Maybe that's what i liked, the way the movie didn't pander and really respected the viewer and trusted us to pick pick up on these things. Anyways, i loved it.
Me llamo es Jorge!
