After taking part on "Smoke" and directing "Blue in the face" Paul Auster kept on feeding his cinematographic interests with this "Lulu on the Bridge". He count one more time on his friend Harvey Keitel who plays a jazz musician whose life gets shattered because of a shot. He'll get his energies back thanks to a delicious an adorable girl called Celia (Mira Sorvino, why don't they hire her for the big productions? Jesus, she's a hell of an actress, and so gorgeous!!).
"Lulu" is a story that deals with real, intense and true love, full of symbols (nothing is as it seems here). The beginning of the movie, when Izzy (Keitel) and Celia meet is much more interesting and moving than the final parts, which are a little bit confusing.
Auster demonstrates his talent behind the camera and his good taste choosing actors and music.
*My rate: 7/10
