Touching and accurate portrayal of the mindfuck PTSD is from both an insider and outsider perspective. Very beautiful, and, in true form, I cried the whole time.

Belladonna of Sadness 1973
A timely watch for me. This has been on my list for an eternity and I had been too scared to dive in, and I’m very glad I did. Could have shaved like 15m off, but I can easily forgive it being a little fatty because it handles its subject matter so tastefully. A beautiful, uncomfortable, and accurate portrayal of what it is like to experience sexual trauma and the aftermath of it. Very glad I watched this.

If I had a nickel for every time a child went through a door in the wall to another world in one of my favorite movies, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice.
Absolutely stunning to see in 35mm at the Plaza.
