If City of Angels hit the spot, these will too

Common ground in both: afterlife and heaven

Both land stillness and dream logic at once

Romantic and tender in the same breath

One thread runs through both: suicide
The difference: Easier on the dream logic than City of Angels

Both lean on stillness more than on drama

The same preoccupation in both: angel

Common ground: life and death


Fantasy with a pulse of romance, in both cases

Drama built on dream logic, twice over

Tender romance, and it commits to that

Melancholy fantasy in both cases
In the mood for more contemplative?
