If there’s one film I cannot wait to see in 2014 it’s Spike Jonze’s HER. Starring Joaquin Phoenix as Theodore, the film explores what happens when a man falls in love with a personalized operating system (OS). Although lacking a physical presence, Samantha (voiced by Scarlett Johansson) manages to bring Theodore to life after he struggles to come to terms with his divorce.
I’m a sucker for anything romantic, especially when there’s a twist to the story. Co-starring Amy Adams, Rooney Mara, Chris Pratt, Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader, HER may well be my film of 2014 (and we’ve not even finished 2013 yet!).
HER, directed by Spike Jonze, will arrive in US cinemas from 10th January 2014, with us Brits having to wait until 14th February (St. Valentine’s Day, anyone?).

Considering Jazmine grew up watching CARRY ON SCREAMING, THE LION KING and JURASSIC PARK on repeat for weeks on end, it made sense for her to study film at London South Bank University. It’s also a good thing that her course requires a lot of sitting down because she’s very accident-prone. When she’s not examining her bruises, she likes pretending that she doesn’t live in Southend-On-Sea and spends hours mindlessly blogging. Favourite films include BLUE VALENTINE, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND and TOY STORY 2.
