  2. I loved it too, watched it again recently and have been amazed how it didn't age at all!

    Maybe because it doesn't even try to be "futuristic"; the two main characters go on a classical recital for their date, it could still be our future because it is just not set in time (future usually doesn't age very well in cinema – compare with the laughable concert in "The 5th element", for example).

    Just one of the reasons it's formally beautiful, not even speaking about the story…
