I enjoyed this film because i start my review of it. The beginning was very touching in which we here an interview as a voiceover this is effective. In the title of the film "Those who love me can take the train" the most important word is love. This film goes to show what real love is. The love is on two levels, one part is the love for this man who has died and the other is what happens after the death. The idea of a train being a way of expressing there love is clever. If you think about. Some of the one-liners in this film are quite good. There is also the scene in which a relative reads out a funeral speech which is then tra*nslated into french. That is very clever. There is a lot of emotional depth to this film. I feel the film however looses it slightly with repetitive dialogue in the last half an hour. I do think the transexual is a very important and effective character in plot, as she helps us to understand about how love can change towards someone when they are something different.
