    I was really due for a good cry. I had tried everything, but not even the final scene in LOTR Return of the King could elicit the waterworks. That's when I knew this long cold winter had truly turned my heart to stone.

    It was the way Mary watches Merab in the final scene that truly thawed my frozen soul. Great cry. The drama in this film escalates so perfectly…

    Idek. I saw this 3 days ago and looking back it feels like a fever dream now. Suns has intermissions, and this film kinda has 2 acts anyways, so I’ll say the 2nd act is absolutely brilliant filmmaking. In the first half it’s a little bit hard to pick up on the tone, and second act kinda forces you to unlearn everything you thought you might find out in a really spellbinding way. Hopefully a big year for me personally with Japanese cinema.

    Perfect "I just left New York thinking I live there after a long weekend visit" movie. Characters can be...dynamic? Wowzers.

    Fellas, is it gay to take yourself to see the most thoughtful and uplifting cinematic experience of the year?
