There’s something so titillating about being in a movie theater and feeling like you’ve discovered the next great American filmmaker. This must’ve been what it felt like to watch your first jarmusch film. So specific and weird and fun. Love the score. Love the acting. But it’s the fact that you never knew where you were going but were always taken care of that most stayed with me. 

Five stars.

Finally a film by an actually adventurous young filmmaker seemingly uninterested in fueling film twitter discourse. Filmmakers seem to have been dissuaded from making personal films about their dreams snd nightmares yet Birney with the aid of Pete ohs and a ragtag crew endeavored to do just that. 

It’s a surrealist whirlygig that celebrates the expansiveness of human imagination.

Should’ve been gayer. With more incest. 

Get them brothers kissing. 

Get Paul mescals mom bathing him before he reveals his tea. 

Denzel was sashaying I just wish Pedro had gotten to sashay a bit more with him.

Little Russian is a star. Bakers best blocking. Very assured filmmaking and excited by the evolution. 

Ultimately felt empty at the end. Like we were robbed of Ani’s intelligence by a filmmaker who had plot points he wanted to hit in spite of it. Nothing makes sense after little Russia leaves. 

Lot of shots gave porn addled brain (derogatory)
