How to watch Past Lives in the UK: Is it streaming?
Celine Song's feature debut was one of the best films of 2023 – and is up for two Oscars.
It's been over a year since Celine Song's feature debut Past Lives launched to rave reviews at Sundance Film Festival 2023 – and the hype has kept going ever since.
The film was named the third best of 2023 by RadioTimes.com at the end of last year, and has unsurprisingly gone on to perform extremely well when it comes to award nominations.
It's up for two prizes at the upcoming Oscars in March, with Song's script nominated in the Best Original Screenplay category and the film set to compete with big hitters such as Oppenheimer and Killers of the Flower Moon in the Best Picture category.
Before it was released in UK cinemas last summer, Song spoke exclusively to RadioTimes.com about the reactions to the film, and how the personal connections viewers had made to it meant more to her than the possibility of awards.
"At the end of the day, the thing that really moves me every time is when the audience sort of lets the story get under their skin and lets it become a part of their lives," she explained.
If those quotes make you curious to see it, read on for everything you need to know about how to watch Past Lives in the UK.
