I dearly love the film and maintain that it’s one of the great pictures from the last 10 years.

After rewatching the film Her‚ written and directed by Spike Jonze‚ I realized that I had never watched a movie so intimately and actively involved in the layering of subtext. Her is an examination of the unconscious feelings that humans feel as well as the struggle to understand those feelings.
