Poliakoff is a god - no doubt. If it were up to me he would be responsible for probably the most memorable films from 1997 on. True life is not something that has come naturally to film, but this man's films are from a different spectrum. In a word "nostalgia" but not in a romantic mean but a regrettable and realistic sense of life = I own over 600 films, yet this one has made a lasting impact. Definitely top 50.
