Anna Paquin in 25th Hour Philip Seymour Hoffman in 25th Hour

I’ve been enjoying the movie “25th Hour“, which has a moment of pure chemistry between a 17-year old student (played by Anna Paquin) and her teacher (Philip Seymour Hoffman). The acting, the direction, and in glorious surround sound, the soundtrack of the fictional “DJ Dusk” makes for a beautiful moment of pure chemistry and intentional seduction that plays out with more intensity than any other cinematic interpretation of the Lolita story I’ve seen.

Wow.
