I need to rewatch it now that I've got a bit more context as to what it's about.
I didn't "get it" the first go round.
It's seems to be a "slice of life" type movie, in that it depicts a particularly interesting and eventful time in the characters lives, as opposed to having any kind of narrative or story.
My favourite movies in that category is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Just fucking madness bounded by opening a closing credits.
Just a bunch of stuff that happened.
- zabil 1y ago> I didn't "get it" the first go round. Same here—I missed it the first time around and found it pretty weird when I finally watched it. But on a recent trip to the Lake District, we ended up visiting a bunch of the filming spots, including the infamous telephone box in Bampton (still around and in good condition). That kind of changed how I saw the movie—it started to feel more like a bunch of odd little vignettes, each with its own strange charm. My partner and her family are big fans and talk about it all the time, so it’s slowly grown on me. Definitely not a “one sitting” kind of film.
