Perfect Sense

Perfect Sense, formerly known as The Last Word, is a 2011 science fiction drama film directed by David Mackenzie and written by Kim Fupz Aakeson, starring Eva Green and Ewan McGregor. Scenes were shot in various locations around Glasgow, Mexico City and Kenya. The film premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival.

Synopsis

An epidemic begins to spread throughout the globe, causing humankind to lose their sensory perceptions one by one. The story focuses on two people: Susan, one of a team of epidemiologists who are trying to find the causes of the disease, and Michael, a chef who works at a busy restaurant located next to Susan's flat. The two meet and get to know each other as the epidemic progresses, a relationship which soon turns to love.

Humans begin to lose their senses one at a time. Each loss is preceded by an outburst of an intense feeling or urge. First, people begin suffering uncontrollable bouts of crying and this is soon followed by the loss of their sense of smell. An outbreak of irrational panic and anxiety, closely followed by a bout of frenzied gluttony, precedes the loss of the sense of taste. The film depicts people trying to adapt to each loss and trying to carry on living as best they can, rediscovering their remaining senses as they do so. Michael and his co-workers do their best to cook food for people who cannot smell nor taste.

You like to run and I like to chill
If I'm chillin' with you girl
Every second that I have you know I will
Spend with you
You're into movies and restaurants
And that's ok but
Spending nights with you is what I want
Cause I like it that way
People say that it wont work
We're not compatible
As long as we're here on this Earth
We'll be unseperable
You me different as night and day
All we ever hear them say
What seems to be totally in illogical
Makes perfect sense to me
We might be light years apart
Still we are tight at the heart
It's completely and totally illogical
But it makes perfect sense to me
You like to go on exotic cruises
To Caribbean islands
Sip margaritas on the beach in Mexico
I like to go walking underneath the stars
Moon shining down on us
You and me holding hands
We understand, we've got a plan
In fact where ever you are is where I wanna go
Don't you know
They can believe what they will
We'll prove them wrong
Come down on our high water our love
Will still be strong
You me different as night and day
All we ever hear them say
What seems to be totally illogical
Makes perfect sense to me
We might be light years apart
Still we are tight at the heart
It's completely and totally illogical
But it makes perfect sense to me
I always heard that opposites attract
You and I live in proof no matter what
Love survives after all
You me different as night and day
All we ever hear them say
What seems to be totally illogical
Makes perfect sense to me
We might be light years apart
Still we are tight at the heart
It's completely and totally illogical
But it makes perfect sense to me
You me different as night and day
All we ever hear them say
What seems to be totally illogical
Makes perfect sense to me
We might be light years apart
Still we are tight at the heart
It's completely and totally illogical But it makes perfect sense to me yeah
