Movie like crazy where is it playing

I ask this as a male who brought some cynicism to my viewing. It may be love at first sight and Anna Felicity Jones may not have spent a lot of time with Jacob Anton Yelchin , but she is deep and true and trusts her heart, and she wants to build a nest with this man.

Jacob, however, feels sincerely for her, but what's required is loony love, not sincerity. If you're in love like crazy, you do what the situation requires. Anna can't get into the United States. Jacob can get into London, but he can't move there because, you see, he designs and builds chairs, and his business is in Santa Monica.

Say what? You can't design chairs in London? You wouldn't rather live in London with the girl you love than build chairs in Santa Monica? His chairs look ordinary to me. The one we see is a straight chair made of wood. We see him lovingly perfecting a sketch of it. Assemble a dozen second graders, assign them to draw a chair, merge their drawings into one, and they would look like a Jacob Chair.

This guy is no Eames. I discuss these problems because I think they expose a problem. It's easy to identify with Anna, because the character is wonderfully well drawn and acted; Felicity Jones, a rising star, has a face that glows when she smiles, and radiates her love and sense of loss.

She reminds me of Helena Bonham Carter. Anton Yelchin has all the tools he needs to play Jacob, but the screenplay doesn't serve him. He doesn't seem to be as involved as Anna. And for a man so involved in the design and crafting of chairs, isn't he on the young side? He is 22, three years younger than Jones.

There should be a time in your youth when you're free to act impulsively on signals from your heart. That said, "Like Crazy" is a well-made film. She did it to be with Jacob, of course. When someone is truly in love, they will often do anything they can to be with that person; but they sometimes forget about the consequences of those actions.

At this point, the two lovebirds must decide on whether to maintain the new long distance relationship. It's not just any long distance relationship of course, it's an overseas relationship. That's a situation which is pretty tough for just about any couple to pull off. So the movie then shifts its tone to one of compromise and struggle. How much can one person sacrifice for the other?

Can they somehow lift the ban, or will Jacob have to move to England thus leaving his current job in the U. Is it all even worth it after it's all said and done?

Many questions arise, not to mention the possibility of finding new love in their own respectable countries with someone else. It's a great film dealing with human emotions and how far we will go for another person. The two actors pour their hearts out on screen and it can be mesmerizing at times. Like Crazy opens nationwide on October It's an independent film though so it will surely be shown in limited release, but find it if you can.
