    • Quotes

      Nemo Nobody aged 118: Every path is the right path. Everything could've been anything else. And it would have just as much meaning.

    • Crazy credits

    Genius
    Just caught the north American premiere at the Toronto Film Festival. This is my first IMDb comment, doing it cause i saw no one else has written anything yet.

    Jaco is an absolutely brilliant writer/director. I haven't seen too many art-house films, but I was pleasantly surprised by the tone which wasn't too serious, or pretentious. There were laugh out loud moments during a movie with themes concerning choice, destiny, and metaphysics.

    I was enamoured by the love story, it was feel good without being Hollywood.

    The visuals were amazing. I believe that Jaco explained that he used different DP's to film the different possible lives of Mr. Nobody. There were scenes set in the year 2092 that were absolutely stunning on the big screen.

    I found the soundtrack to be awesome. Any movie with "Mr. Sandman" and "Where is my mind?" is alright by me.

    The movie was extremely imaginative, original, funny, and will probably have me thinking about it and my own life for days after viewing.
