From debut feature writer/director Celine Song & A24, critically acclaimed romance, PAST LIVES, is already largely considered to be a Best Picture frontrunner this awards season.
Labelled “one of the best films of the year” (Chicago Reader), the latest release from indie powerhouse A24 follows Nora and Hae Sung, two deeply connected childhood friends, are wrest apart after Nora’s family emigrates from South Korea. Two decades later, they are reunited in New York for one fateful week as they confront notions of destiny, love, and the choices that make a life, in this heartrending modern romance.
Stars Greta Lee and Teo Yoo are electric together in the disarming and heartfelt romance that will stay with audiences long after the end credits roll.
"A movie that liberates your tears and makes you fall in love with it. It is almost assuredly predestined to be the single best movie you see this year."
- ROLLING STONE
"Celine Song’s tender, time-spanning romance is an exquisitely judged wonder. A directorial debut of remarkable poise and power."
- TOTAL FILM
"Celine Song makes a quietly spectacular writing-directing debut with Past Lives, a lyrical slow burn of a film that expertly holds back wellsprings of emotion, until it unleashes a deluge."
- WASHINGTON POST
"A soaring, decades-spanning romance that will make you catch your breath."
- HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
"Undoubtedly the best film of the year so far."
