watched the charlie brown xmas special last night so the filthiness of some of these scenes hit me like a bus. as usual his attention to detail is unmatched, why could i smell so many of these scenes? whole thing is a disorienting mix of realism and absurdity, which i suppose is every kon movie, but for him to use it in such a grounded “family” movie makes it incomparable to anything else he made. funnier the longer you’re in it and the credits is just the cherry on top
dale cooper would have a field day with this town. i’m getting too predictable but this was a home run, so delightful and hilarious and life-affirming. nashville but weirder and happier, even some stuff (parade scene) that reminded me of tati. thank you to the one person in my twitch chat who would tell me to watch this every stream
the shot of martin sheen stepping on that cow was weirdly gorgeous. simple but so strange and memorable, which i can say about most of the shots. whole movie is a beauty to look at. i’ve heard Gassenhauer in three different movies just this year (priscilla, true romance, this) and the use of it here is so warm. funnier than i thought it’d be. sissy spacek amazing as always
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
chill beats to kill yourself to
can't stop thinking about this movie
