hurt people hurt people and miserable people perpetuate their own misery.
this movie really explores sex as an urge from spirit to experience something outside of yourself and to come close to transcendence.
their first sex scene was almost painful and awkwardly brutal. it felt like a dance being conducted by something altogether outside of them, moving them to action in ways their conscious minds hadn’t yet caught up to. and this entire film felt like the unraveling of john’s misery and softening of his heart
everyone deserves to be loved and to be held, even at their most unlovable.
absolutely loved this! definitely almost cried
