Somewhere takes us Nowhere

By cinemao​fdreams on January 8, 2011

Very disappointing. I give it 3 out of 5 because Elle Fanning’s performance is very good and the film is competently made but Sofia Coppola needs to reexamine the great films about emptiness – try Antonioni’s L’Avventura and Blow-Up as well as Fellini’s La Dolce Vita. A character’s empty life should somehow be portrayed and examined with substance. This is really not a completed film but just like the main character it too is looking for something, somewhere but apparently not during its runtime. I just hope this is not followed up by a film called Nowhere, because that’s already been covered with this film.
