I mean, formally, this is very likely one of the best movies I’ll flat out ever see in my life, right?
There’s quite literally nothing like this that I’ve ever experienced. Such brilliance to reduce cinema, and comedy as a whole, down to its very essence. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that it feels like the current cinema landscape has lost its way. Here, in PlayTime, it never really felt more apparent. The fact that something as simple…

Anatomy of a Fall 2023
A wildly riveting film that plays with the very idea of perception and how it dictates our lives and the choices we make
The construction of this thing is just so deceptively simple yet brilliantly effective

There’s just so little of the Argento violence or horror in this one with so much meandering, on top of an, at BEST, gross romance that works on no level whatsoever
The music was good though, and I kind of adore the haunting beauty of that main theme?
