A breathtaking and unbelievably innovating movie, truly some of the most creative and original storylines of modern cinema. Very philosophical, it will make you drop all of your ideas to the floor and rise them back up to the roof.

I thought it was so intriguing, and beautiful, and I really appreciated the bits of surrealism that were there. This is like a cinematic/visual poem, (which is also what her debut was), so I understand its not being for everyone. I found it pretty remarkable though. Miranda July is very possibly my favorite modern filmmaker.… Expand
