Not a lot happens in “Past Lives.” And yet it is a small and beautiful film. How was tension created by Celine Song with only one kiss in which the camera pans away and it is dark. Alan speaks with actress, writer and director Leah Gottfried, who crated and starred in the series “Soon By You” about Orthodox Jews on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. They discuss similarities between the show and the film-having to show tension with modesty (the characters on her show could not touch members of the opposite sex before marriage due to religious adherence) and “Past Lives” does much of its charm with dialogue. Alan questions Leah about the big scene at the end when Nora (Greta Lee) cries and they disagree in their interpretations of the scene. Leah speaks about how the film is different and shows that while it’s harder not to take the easy route in a romantic film, the result can be more rewarding. Alan asks Leah if she think the film may encourage men to behave differently in their dating habits.
