    Bo Burnham: Inside

    the formalism here was interesting at times however this self-aware solipsism x guilt narrative technique doesn't serve anyone and, considering his material position in life, manipulates an audience it ultimately sort of looks down upon. he'd benefit from a deep study of cinema. it's fine if you're rich and need to spend that freedom making art to maintain purpose in life. i've no doubt fame built from a spotlight on self-image comes with identity crises but an attempt to break from a blatant narcissism that will only result in regret should be made.

    the person introducing this movie weirdly mentioned that Apitchatpong's films have often been looked down upon by general audience members at film festivals but have success with the critics and then he came on to introduce the film after that and in a tongue-in-cheek way was like "Are you sure you guys want to watch this?" and then of course it turns out to be one of the most unreal cinematic experiences I'll ever have. The print they screened was according to him the only pristine print available of this movie in existence.
