    ★★★★★

    Joseph Gordon-Levitt's best work, next to his character in Brick.
    I remember watching this for the first time after I got familiar with Gregg Araki's The Doom Generation.
    I love the score and the colors, the ways the film explored challenging themes in a haunting and enticing way. It doesn't steer far from reality or real-life issues or experiences.
