And that’s before the…

Upside Down shows how gravity-challenged lovers kiss

We’re still pretty excited for Juan Diego Solanas’ strange romance movie Upside Down. The premise is totally ridiculous — Jim Sturgess and Kristen Dunst are in love, but live on opposite planets connected by the sky with opposing gravity forces — but the actual look to this M.C.
