Room to Rent
(2001)
Overview
Ali is a young Egyptian screenwriter determined to succeed in London, where he has been a student. He loves the artistic and political freedom, the colours, the music, the individualism. But he has little money, his student visa is about to expire and he has been thrown out of his lodgings. And so Ali moves in with a succession of eccentric and colourful London flatmates: Mark, a photographer with a very individual style, Linda, a young, blonde, very sexy model and Marilyn Monroe impersonator, and Miss Stevenson who is convinced that Ali is the reincarnation of her long dead Egyptian lover.

frankly not a good movie at all but I'm absolutely in love with how vivid a lot of the scenery is and there's this one shot with Fernando and Mark blurry in the background and Linda is the focus and she's kind of haloed by light and I think it's gorgeous, I have it screenshotted and I look at it probably several times a month... what that says about me idk lmao
(I watched this for Shane Taylor)
