    This is like ladybird if ladybird had been certifiably insane

    Transformative. Accurate depiction of what it FEELS like when a girl fights with her mom. LOVE LOVE LOVE the film quirks and techniques, cuts, transitions, etc that made it feel like an old hollywood movie but in bright vivid living blood red color — better than technicolor! Mia goth, you ARE a star!

    Actually now that I am old the premise seems pretty far out of whack. That is actually a pretty fucked up arrangement actually. Separating them as though they are pieces of property? interchangeable? Though I guess the swap proves that they are. Anyway Elizabeth James is the most glam fab woman around and I actually aspire to be her when I grow up.

    This is a bittersweet concept. That there are people in our lives who are meant to be there and will be there regardless of space and time and life. That we are meant to be with even if we are not. That we can find something or someone else even if we feel the invisible string go taut. That it can slacken.

    This is a beautiful movie, and a new favorite for me. I love it because it raises that…

    Most enjoyable movie where nothing happens. Sigh sometimes I really worry I peaked in high school. Also I love Austin so fucking much. When I am trapped in college station I will watch this and cry myself to sleep because I love Austin SO MUCH. Kms actually
