Tossup
In a 2005 film, a cyclist singing this song through a congested London street inspires Rachel to call out to her girlfriend Luce. In another film titled for this song, a man wearing a baseball cap wonders why a tape of his friend’s voice sounds like muffled sobbing, while the camera swivels around him looking out from the top of a lighthouse. That 1997 film titled for this song switches from a muted gray look to a yellow-tinged palette after a man tells his lover “let’s start over.” A 2002 film ends with this song playing over a time-lapse of traffic with (*) sunflowers opening and closing in the foreground. This song’s vocalist was motivated to finish a solo album by watching two characters played by Nicolas Cage singing it in Spike Jonze’s film Adaptation. After a lamp inspires them to visit Iguazú Falls, two Hong Kongers get stuck in Argentina in a Wong Kar-wai film titled for this song. For 10 points, the title of the romcom Imagine Me & You was taken from what song by the Turtles? ■END■
