Sad story , yet beautiful movie..

Well,the movie its self deals with a very serious burden,a fatal illness.Every movie from now and then has a similar topic like this, so it's up to the point of the script and the director to show every aspect of the situation.Luckily,this film without being offensive reveals a clever way of coping with all the misfortunes of life.The road of "acceptance" and "moving on"..even by the person who is going to die.The title of the movie "Restless" gives away the key to this movie,and personally i would say the key to everything.Be happy and never "let go" until it's time to do so,when it no longer depends on you and your perspective towards life.

The characters of the movie played by Mia Wasikowska(Annabel)and Henry Hopper(Enoch)seem special in a unique way and sometimes out of the ordinary,without this being a disadvantage of them.Even the "ghost"Ryo Kase,presented in the movie as Hiroshi is very sympathetic and helpful,full of emotions.

The score was absolutely amazing,i got "enchanted" by every single song in the film.

Overall,this is a very sweet movie although dramatic.I felt like i was there with them,rather than watching just a film..I definitely recommend it :)
