    I am very unsure how I truly feel about this film. Went in blind like I always do, so I had no idea this film was going to be so political. And I’ll say, the political nature of this movie completely ruined it for me.

    Shout out to Igor, only person in the whole film who saw Ani as a human.

    As much as I’m supposed to hate Vanya, I still find him attractive. Lord help me. There’s something wrong with me.
