ghar wapasi hui toh dil ko (kit)chen aaya.

I raise my face to meet the warmth of the sun, and it feels like home deeper than home.

Thank you, I think.

Thank you.

If we twist ourselves into a shape that burns, it won’t be your fault.

everything everywhere all at once is both of these at once

Normal people watching EEAAO: starts getting some emotional waterworks probably somewhere at the end of part 1 or partway through Part 2 of the movie, or possibly at the very end of the movie.

Me: A sobbing, hysterical mess 10 minutes into the movie when Evelyn walks up to Joy's car and looks like she's about to say something important and emotionally difficult, only for her to say "You have to try to eat healthier. You are getting fat".

that daughterhood feeling of wanting to blame your mother for how you turned out, wanting to be angry at her for how you’ve inherited her pain and her insecurities, but at the same time wanting to keep coming home to her, out of everyone else in the universe, because you know that if there’s anyone who might be anything like you–if there’s anyone who might even have a clue of what it’s like to be you–it could only be her. and no matter how many times you’ve hurt each other, no matter how difficult it might be to get her to truly see you, you still just want her to love you as you are, to tell you that this isn’t your fault, and to show you that she would keep letting you come home to her.

everything everywhere all at once is about intergenerational trauma. about depression and passive suicidality and the gravitational appeal of nothingness. about aging, getting older in your twenties and getting older in your fifties. about the specific hurt mothers can cause their daughters and daughters their mothers. about the harsh reality of the immigrant experience and the american dream. but it’s mostly about kindness and family and it’s about choosing to sit at home talking about taxes with someone who loves you, and it’s about telling your daughter that you’d choose her over the entire universe, and it’s about how even in the universes where life didn’t form, love can still exist. and it’s really all of that at once.

it’s so true that the greatest weapon against nihilism and existential despair is to find joy in the mundane and never stop chasing after love

Everything everywhere all at once is a film about a girl ripping the entire universe apart just to find a part of her mother that she feels understands her. And everything everywhere all at once is a film about a mother ripping the entire universe apart just to understand her daughter. And my chest feels like it’s caving in when I think about it too long
