    Hi, Mom!

    ★★★★

    Easily has one of the craziest scenes i’ve ever seen in my life. i was just there like how tf is de Palma gonna get out of this? And he got out of it.

    ★★★★

    Chytilova’s Daises is a wonderful feat of rebellion against the absurd patriarchal idea of femininity and social realism.
     
    Although the Maries’ actions throughout the film are so destructive in nature, the Maries themselves maintain this child, dreamlike innocence to them that keeps us rooting for whatever adventure they may be up to next. 

    i wonder if the two Maries are still alive today.

    that disciplinary meeting scene was really, really funny. also the captions breathing by themselves was something I've never really seen before in film. it seems more YouTube-esque than filmy, but that's something I'll all for.

    My one gripe is that maybe Alex is a little unlikable as the main character, but maybe that's just what being an eighth grader is.
