will watch again ASAP, but really looking forward to watching this with subtitles, to get it all in. 

HOT PROMETHEAN PLUNDER

is one of my fave utterances from this film

Something Spanish

One of many great lines in a film suffused with Shakespearean soliloquies.

I'm eager to dive into some of the texts (namely Moby Dick again) referenced in the credits to see how much dialogic lifting was done.

Moby-Dick is a towering literary classic that's far different than other literary classics, such as, say, much of Mark Twain, because the golden novel is singular. so a variation on Under the Volcano, but larger than that one in this large multi-layered canvas that brings you right back to Shakespeare

so that's a healthy pathway. for various reasons im skipping this for now but the way i look at is if it inspires elevated conversations it inspires elevated conversations. so it's cool

Film of the year for me (so far)

The precise compositions, aspect ratio, score, colorful dialogue, masturbation, humor..... Wowee super inspiring
