I saw it as a Rorschak too, of what both were fleeing from (same things, different things and in their different styles). That approach can make expressions and emotions clearer than the usual tack - just showing the 'attractions'.

I also found it a welcome antidote for the (entire genre) Action flics, none of which I'll watch for-free. Of course! it wouldn't score big-$$ in the USA - hell, it was about love! sans gyne exam titillations.
