    "Humans only have one ending. Ideas live forever."

    I LOVE IT!
    I have nothing to complain about this movie, except for the fact that that the songs were kind of boring.
    A feminst pink-coloured comedy that touched the heart of millions around the globe.

    "And there's this feeling, once you leave where you're from, like, where you grew up, that you don't totally belong there again."

    This film captures childhood memories perfectly, and it deals with heavy themes such as depression. It portraits these emotions with such empathy and compassion.
    Callum is behaving recklessly with his own life and is clearly going through a crisis. His mental state is not well, and we can see this through the rave scenes.
