Bujalski characters are just so damned likable for no discernable reason
diner scene eyeball cow lactating — the silliness, it’s not about what they’re saying, it’s about how they’re saying things and the looks and chemistry
everyone’s so deferential and shy and beating around the bush
“things to do” scene is sweet and endearing
aspect ratio! (similar to Ida?)
him wanting her to smile after the day they had together - honest, revealing
the characters like each other and struggle with expressing that, struggle with those feelings and themselves, their relationships, etc.
handwritten title cards!
