Friday the 15th, we made sail with the morning tide I have been quarantined to a store room, away from the other passengers and crew All I want to do now is return home My dear Sixsmith. I am in desperate need of your help I got hooked on a journal written in 1849 by a dying lawyer during the voyage from a Pacific island to San Francisco Half the book is missing. It's completely killing me! A half finished book is, after all, a half finished love affair What are you reading? Old letters Why do y
ou keep reading them? I don't know. I'm just tryna understand why we keep making the same mistakes Over and over Our lives and our choices, each encounter... Luisa Rey, Spyglass Magazine Right! ...suggest a new potential direction That's it! The music from my dreams I call it the Cloud Atlas sextet and whole movements written imagining us meeting again and again in different lives Different ages What..What are you doing in here? We cross and re-cross our old tracks like figure skaters The love o
f my life? What had happened to her? I can't explain it but I knew when opened that door... I had.. I had a dream, it was in a nightmarish cafe Blaring bright lights, underground, and no way out and the waitresses, they all had the same face Welcome to 'Papa Song's' No reason to hide I know who you are, Somni 451 Yesterday, my life was headed in one direction... Today, it is heading in another ...never think that the universe is against you? What the f...? Where is our money? The law says... The
law? Fear, belief, love Phenomenon that determines the course of our lives This forces begin long before we are born and continue after we perish Our lives are not our own We are bound to others... past and present and by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future I have begun to fear I may never hold my beloved Tilda in my arms again The problem you create is a political one Yesterday I believed I would never have done what I did today I feel like something important has happened to me
Is this possible? I just met her and yet, I have fallen in love with Luisa Rey ... for saving me twice You fall, I'll catch you There is a natural order to this world, and those who try to abandon it do not fare well I believe there is another world waiting for us Sixsmith a better world and I'll be waiting for you there.

"ask me why I like cloud Atlas so much-" -kotaro bokuto
2020 Who has seen the movie and keeps coming here to watch one of the best trailers ever made?
Is anyone here after reading "in another life" and watched the trailer to cry to it and now you wanna watch the movie ??????
"What genre is this film?" "Yes."
This just shows that trailers need their own academy awards
God, I cry every time I watch this trailer because I've seen the movie multiple times and I can easily call it my favorite. It's amazing, a work of art, a deep, deep story that really gets you thinking. I love it.
"Ask... M-me w... Why I like... Cloud Atlas so much." Perplexed, Akaashi directed his full attention to Bokuto. "Well alright... Koutarou, why do you like Cloud Atlas so much?" He watched Bokuto intently, curious to know what his answer would be. Looking up at Akaashi with eager eyes, as if he'd been asked the question out of his own free will, Bokuto gladly answered. "S... So you... Know in the m-movie when... Th... Characters die in one life...?" He kept his weary yellow eyes on Akaashi, waiting for him to nod. Once he did, Bokuto continued. "W-well... I... Like it when... Th-they find each other again... In another life." Bokuto's voice was soft, measly, and carried no force to it. But as he spoke about his favorite scene, Akaashi could sense a powerful vibe coming from him... One that wasn't there before. A hopeful one. "It m-makes me... Feel like I'll h-have another life... One beyond this one... One that's better... Wh.. Where I can actually wake up to you... and be with y... you..." A smile played on his pale, thin lips. "One where we... Can... Live n...normal lives instead of... Living... This one." -In Another Life
"keiji.. ask me why i like cloud atlas so much"
we weren't ready for this movie. It's before it's time
"Yesterday, I believed I would never have done what I did today." This line right here.
“Bokuto didn’t smell like a hospital anymore...... he smelled like home”
The way I’m returning to this trailer time and time again and crying at the power of it. I honestly can’t with how amazing this is.
Never before has the phrase, "criminally underrated" been so applicable. This is a movie made for no other reason than telling a story. It wasn't made as a cash cow (it only made around 10% of it's budget back as worldwide profits), it wasn't run by Hollywood executives to ensure that it was "safe" before being greenlighted, it wasn't Oscar bait (though that the Oscars seemed to miss it entirely is a travesty); It was made as an insanely brave attempt at storytelling, and for those who look for it, the story is magnificent. The best metaphor I can think of it that this movie is like an intricate ornament, that as you turn it and inspect it from new angles, new details and fascinations become apparent. Everyone involved, the directors, the actors, the extras, the special effects designers, the costume designers, set designers, CGI artists, and of course the make up artists, poured everything they had into this film. This being the internet, I'm pretty sure I'll get insulted for saying this, but this movie is one of the most brilliant cinematic pieces of art ever made.
This masterpiece is criminally underrated
This movie doesn't get the recognition it deserves. It's like poetry how it was written out I've been hooked on it ever since I first watched it.
half of yall came from “in another life” 😭💀
This films so underrated :(
I think what's astounding is this is a 5 minute trailer......... that somehow managed to make the movie look cool AND not spoil it. ... I don't know how they did that.
This movie is not for everyone. But it is an incredible work of art. For those who like artsy, cerebral films, this is a must see.
Now i understand why Bokuto loves this movie. Yes, that fanfiction where Bokuto was suffering from FFI. Edit: The story title is "In another life" by LittleLuxray you can read it on Ao3
