Her (2013)
Directed by Spike Jonze
"Sometimes I think I have felt everything I'm ever gonna feel. And from here on out, I'm not gonna feel anything new. Just lesser versions of what I've already felt."
The movie that made everyone fall in love with a voice. Joaquin Phoenix plays Theodore, a lonely writer who develops a relationship with Samantha, an AI operating system voiced by Scarlett Johansson. It's about loneliness in a hyperconnected world. It's about loving something you can't hold. It's devastating and beautiful.
Spike Jonze created a pastel-colored near-future that feels both alien and intimately familiar. High-waisted pants. Handwritten letters for people who can't express their feelings. A love story that asks what it means to be human. You'll finish this movie and immediately want to call someone you miss.
