"A Ghost Story" synopsis

C and M, a young couple living in a small house in the suburbs of Texas, USA, were living a happy life, but one day, her husband C suddenly died in a traffic accident. Wife M confirms C's corpse at the hospital, covers the body with a sheet, and leaves the hospital, but C, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly gets up with the sheet still on his head and returns home where his wife is waiting. Although M is unaware of his existence, C, who has become a ghost, continues to watch over his wife who is suffering from grief. However, one day, M makes a decision to move forward, and C, who is left behind, begins to wander in search of his wife's last feelings.

Minimal yet magnificent. A cute ghost floating across time and space



I saw a very strange movie. Even though it's strange, there's nothing scary or frightening about it. Although the main character is a ghost, his appearance is as cute as Casper or Oba Q. On the other hand, while his style is very minimal, it also has a profoundness that allows us to see a magnificent universe through its small frontage.


If I were to shamelessly use an analogy that just came to mind, it would be a ghost version of the Tree of Life . I'm not sure how many people will agree with these words, but there is definitely a visual epic aspect to this film that brings to mind Terrence Malick's work, depicting eternity through the perspective of a ghost.

Come to think of it, the director of this film, David Lowery's breakthrough film, ``Saints '' (13), was also an intense and beautiful work that somehow resembled Malick's `` Escape from Inferno '' (1973). I remember. Are the two connected in some fundamental way?
