One of the most beautifully done and wonderfully acted movies I have seen in a very long time, years even. A movie



of the such moving unselfish love. It goes to show you that you do not to have sex or even touching or kissing to



feel or show the love that these two people have for each other. Due to cultural differences they can not even touch



each other. The scene in which he helps her pick up the fruit that has fallen on the ground is so touching. How



their hands criss cross each other without touching. See how just the closeness of their arms and hands to each



other evoke such passionate feelings and the way they dig deep into each others eyes is wonderful. What an



incredible movie.
