SPOILERS (well not exactly, but its a scene in the movie)

my favorite scene is the one where she shaves her armpits and then puts makeup on, fucks up all her makeup, starts to cry and licks her armpits.

And a year and two months later... I saw this.

Very cool, interesting, intriguing movie.  I so loved and admired how it really fucked all convention.  It was a bit hard to follow because of it, but some of the transitions were quite priceless -- especially the dreamlike sequence where she sees the doll with the cell phone in its head, answers it, and wakes up to find her doctor on the line telling her she's pregnant.  The ending kind of sucked, and the film was a bit short, but most of all, the heart that went in to it was so admirable that one can forget all its faults.  Definitely reminds one of an 8 1/2 or something, or I bet Schizopolis, too, once I get to sit down and watch it.

I thought it was great.  And Ono's right: you've got to admire the balls it took to make it, because I see it as an extremely personal film, not to mention the "cinematic conventions" it pissed on.
