Just a few thought ramblings I had during that marathon of a film:
No film needs to be that long
Okay Colonel Dorothy with the ‘We’re not in Kansas anymore, this is Pandora’
I feel like them hitting the oxygen mask is the same as us hitting a vape
Bro held hands with a whale
After 3 self-given intervals, I would like to come back to my earlier comment about the length of the film. However, it did feel justified,…
I have watched this 4 times, I cannot stop, I spot new things each time and I’m absolutely enamoured by this film. have also decided that my favourite thing about it is the fact you can see fingerprints on the plasticine models, not sure why. maybe because it makes it feels like a true work of art crafted by actual hands.
This. Is. Cinema.
Genuinely caught myself smiling halfway through at how much I was enjoying every aspect of the film. I was hooked. I don’t even need to list the actors who did an incredible job, they all smashed it out of the park.
I was starting to lose some faith in modern filmmaking and this restored it, Eggers really knows how to tell a story.
Also, I have never fangirled over a DOP like I have with Jarin Blaschke right now. Work of art good sir, you should be proud.
I would give a kidney to see Rdiohead live, and the other one to see them perform Reckoner, and then an extra third kidney to see that specific performance of Nude (because my god was it transcendent)
