The last shot is a woman walking back up a street and I have thought about it most weeks since. No trick to it at all.

Why this scoreLong persistence of a specific image; exceptional.

I emigrated at nine and this is the first film that has made me phone my mother straight afterwards.

Why this scorePersonal resonance with an immediate described action; top band.

Almost nothing happens and I was gripped. The bar scene at the end is three people being decent to each other and it hurt.

Why this scoreSpecific scene named and an emotional response reported; strong.
