Strange, bittersweet and beautiful beyond belief. My sensibilities, my sense of humour...it all comes back to here. Wes' slightly-off-key dry humour, with Baumbach's middle-class angst and quick wit, simmering in a pot of pure stop motion magic. I'm not trying to be pretentious, though, seeing that I'm trying to emulate the movie's way of speaking here, I suppose that pretension's pretty inevitable.

Basically, it's some kind of indescribable magic, the peak of the careers of all those involved you could argue. And I would.

Just...fantastic. I'll love it forever.
