    Dad used to rent this from the library and we used to watch together 

    For this, I’ll love this movie forever

    Some films aren’t about the mechanics of plot but about mapping of the psyche - it isn’t about a to b to c, it’s a terrain

    Terrain is uneven, with growth, life and decay— you find hidden things, fears, queries, doubts, and the beautiful alongside the distasteful

    This is a movie about that. It takes courage to make a film like this, which you know people will complain doesn’t give a series of satisfying events or questions with answers. But I’m so happy it exists and I am a different person for having watched it.

    Gorgeous film from start to finish.

    Lyrical, restrained, beautiful, evocative - why don’t we have more films like this? Where the internal is the mine of riches and the hero’s journey. 

    There is a self which we don’t know exists or not, due to change and circumstance. What if someone knew the past you? Loved that person? Is that me, still? Do I know that person? 

    I saw so much of myself in this, as a child who immigrated along…
