Map of the Human Heart (1992 Vincent Ward)

Screenplay Louis Nowra, story Ward, involving eskimos, a love story which begins in a TB clinic, and World War II!

Jason Scott Lee, Anne Parillaud (Nikita) (and as their younger selves Robert Joamie and Annie Galipeau), Patrice Bergin, Jeanne Moreau, John Cusack.

Strikingly original, beautiful and extraordinary. Dedicated to Ward's dad, who died during filming.




Photographed in the pastley pallette of Eduardo Serra (though the Dresden scenes are striking). We were spoiled with great cinematographers today).
Music by Gabriel Yared ( many films since the 80s including all of Minghellas).
