“i’ll be so lucky to have you” is such a beautiful line. himi knowingly returns to a world that is destined to consume her in the fires she holds dear, all because they’re also the very doors that’ll bring mahito into existence.
and that’s the enduring essence of miyazaki’s works: life, through all its suffering and misery, is still worth living. through the people we love and the memories we cherish, we search for and find our reasons to live.

So there was a french animated film about the friendship between Icarus and the Minotaur last year and I was supposed to hear about it on the bird app?
I mean it’s literally not streaming anywhere yet nor does it have a home media release at this time but I would like to get hyped in hopes of one of those things happening eventually.
It has a good style! I would like to see the tragedy!

HOLY FUCK. What a movie. Just what a movie. Holy fuck
(Or, it was incredible. Absolutely blew my socks off. Please go and see it. You do not need to have watched anything else in the franchise, it's completely standalone (though it very much retains much of the symbolism of the original and other films). Especially go see it if you like kaiju films. But it was such a good film about humanity and hope. Just incredible. Go and see it.)

Growing up my mom always fall asleep when we would go to the movies. I remember shaking her awake at the end credits, asking her when she remembers nodding off so I can fill her in on what she missed.
Wes Anderson’s new film asteroid city has a story within a story, we watch the stage play in colour as the writer cast and crew develop the production in black and white. During one of these black and white segments the writer thinks through a scene we will ultimately not see unfold in the play proper- a town together asleep sharing a dream.
Films have often been described this way, a shared dream. A room full of strangers lulled to sleep as the lights dim, and before our eyes a dazzling show of colour and sound occurs- we share the dreaming.
My mother often describes scenes in films that never actually happened, scenarios she dreamed up as she fell into a nap in the theatre seat. A private dream. We bring our own dreams to the movies.
One of the characters in the stage play steps off of the stage, out of the world of colour and into the real world of black and white, meeting with the director he asks- am I doing it right? What does it mean?
Leaving the theatre I leave my phone on silent in my bag, for just a moment longer, taking my time to awake. I could search the film tag and have all my questions answered, but I’d rather sit in my curiosity longer- maybe it doesn’t mean anything, dreams often don’t, but the experience of having one always gives us something
