Mesmerizing. There …
Mesmerizing. There is something so magical about this opening, the deceptively cheerful music at the beginning, like fluttering birds; that gorgeous - but ominous - long tracking shot, the camera hovering over him as he runs, like death is following him, waiting to strike. Then he enters a dark tunnel - the biggest cliché for a death scene imaginable- but such a perfect, inevitable, and oddly beautiful last image for this sequence. I loved this film.

An excellent film, …
An excellent film, infinitely watchable and notable for a few reasons, not the least of which being it’s the last movie in which Ms. Kidman could use her entire face for expression.

I didn’t know that, but it was a wonderful film wasn’t it? I cried so much, it was beautiful
You know what I recommend? If you liked Birth, you might also like that new movie, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Birth has been my favorite movie until I saw that film. Really, you should see it!

Your absolutelly …
Your absolutelly right!
Also… the director prior to making this movie sad that he wanted to make a movie about “the idea of eternal love” - the answer is there:D

Glazer has acknowledged a debt to Mr. Kubrick. And boy, don’t we need a film maker of Kubrick’s depth and daring in these dismal movie-going times?

It is him, he tells her that he’s not her “husband” he has been unfaithful to her and betrayed her; he denies it because he know it would have killed her
That’s the whole point of the movie!

Yeah, but this was …
Yeah, but this was a letdown as a climax. Sort of like a great cliffhanger and then you find out it’s all a dream. The film was great at offering a terrific puzzle and then wimping out with the solution. Too bad because it had atmosphere to burn and great acting from everybody.

I guess it depends on what you want to believe in terms of what everything means. I simply took it as the boy had read all those secret love letters and that’s how he knew everything and he truly loved Anna. Near the end, he finds out about the real Sean’s other love and then realizes he can’t be Sean since he truly loves Anna as opposed to Sean who had another lover.

This is a fantastic way to begin a picture. However, I don’t think BIRTH holds up at the end. The “big reveal” always felt like a copout to me.
But still, this is 4 minutes I’ll gladly revisit any day.

This is REAL cinema folks. Not that commercial watered down, compromised and McCrap that studios crank out by the dozens. Masterful use of pace, score, image composition, editing, lighting and direction. Those elements all come together to make magic.

My God, that is an amazing start of this movie.
Never could figure out if that little boy really was the dead husband.

this is one of the very few movies that make me cry at the very, very beginning! It was this speech about the bird that is so remarkably and outstandingly sad! Just imagine it!
