After a rough break-up, Elizabeth sets out on a journey across America, leaving behind a life of memories, a dream and a soulful new friend; a cafe owner–all while in search of something to mend her broken heart. Waitressing her way through the country, Elizabeth befriends others whose yearnings are greater than hers, including a troubled cop and his estranged wife and a down-on-her luck gambler with a score to settle. Through these individuals, Elizabeth witnesses the true depths of loneliness and emptiness, and begins to understand that her own journey is part of a greater exploration within herself.

It’s just like a piece of tasty blueberry pie

The picture of the movie really works well in catching attention. Probably this is what people would talk first about this movie. The shots focus more on the circumstance as a whole rather than detailed. Thus, the movie works better at giving you a feeling rather than telling you what’s happening. The motion is the second spot in this movie. They together make a love tale in a modern time. The strangers but soul mates, the coincidental confront but miracle consolers. The whole time watching this movie is much more focusing on the feelings and circumstances rather than actually what’s going on. The time plot switches from a rainy summer day to a cold winter night. The actress’s location is always changing, from the stories happening around her, we are able to trace her motion. She’s like a bird, keep moving, seeing, feeling, and comforting herself all the time with a neat heart. The taste of the movie is also like a piece of blueberry pie, healing the heart in a cold rainy evening with warm and sweet power. Getting rid of all that convenience in today, the guy and girl share a bond through the old fashion posting letters. The music suits perfectly with the whole rhythm, so emotional and relaxing just like a piece of tasty blueberry pie.

Life of the others in the eye of a blueberry girl

Elizabeth wants the often unwanted blueberry pie. She likes to take the love slow this time. She’s encouraging many other people and she stands the pity from the life of the others. She always passes on the miracle healing power of the blueberry pie to the people around her.

The story, the acting, hm…

The movie is inevitably a bit boring due to its slow rhythm which is a typical Wong Ka wai movie. There’s also one more thing must mention is that the acting of many actors are far from satisfaction especially the ex-wife of the cop. Generally speaking, if you were looking for a more cheering and exciting movie, this probably is not the right choice.
