I am continually struck by how often people oversimplify the experiences and events in our lives and those of others. This film, however, stands out by delving deep into the complexities of people's relationships and emotions, offering an empathetic and non-judgmental perspective. Todd Haynes deserves respect for introducing a third character into this narrative, symbolizing the average person reading a headline about any dramatic event, detached yet affected.
Natalie Portman's portrayal of Elizabeth is captivating; she strives to understand yet…
Watching this film felt deeply personal to me. Set not far from where I was born and raised, its characters and their expressions resonated with familiarity. The portrayal of emotional unavailability and the struggle to process feelings, while refusing to let go without placing blame, is a poignant reflection often seen in Lithuanian men. The constant presence of supportive, beautiful women beside them as they navigate life's challenges feels infuriating yet an accurate reflection of reality.
Looking forward to the screening of Laurynas Bareiša's upcoming film 'Sesės'.

I was supposed to go on a date that day. At the same time I felt like my body had the energy that was too low to leave the house and yet I wanted my world to be shook. I felt like cinema. I felt like there was no other place for my body to exist in the few upcoming hours but in a dark theatre with a bright screen. So I looked at the repertoire and saw a film…
Genius film. Perfect balance of everything. Even the dramatic wedding interruption made sense. It had everything and it all balanced each other out. Mystical, absurd, analytical... It was true about all it was. I want people to be more like that too. Also Emma Stone if you’re reading this I will love you forever.
Finally, there was a scene when I realized the film was directed by a man. If you know what I am refering to, please let me know.
