33 Similar Movies To Brief Crossing (2001)

A young French man and an elderly English woman on board a ship share a romantic evening. A yearning for a topic that can be thought of as a fleeting affair, one that doesn’t have much of a future but is enhanced by the mere knowledge that it won’t last. Because anything that is only temporary and has no future does not automatically make it pitiful or unimportant.

A quick journey, possibly one, is serving as an introduction. Recording a guy’s “first time,” but `filming him in the manner of a female. Gut level skin deep… A wistful yearning for large ocean liners and for areas “beyond the law” where one could wander outside of life while being protected within an interval. Describing a passion while adhering to the rules of classical tragedy regarding the unity of time and location laying the groundwork for the never-ending battle between the masculine and the feminine.
