“we can do it. we can fucking skip time”

i started to get scared when the reviews for this began to trickle in, but i have to admit that i was completely captivated by it, and not in a sense that i think it’s profound or that i’m seeing something that people are missing, but the fucking honestly of it... not everyone is gonna enjoy that or be entertained by that, but it’s fascinating to me here: time compacted, emotions strained to the breaking point. years worth of interactions sped up and processed and cherished and discarded like rotten fruit. and most of all, the two extremely dedicated and sincere performances make this what it is, whatever that may be

this is a really peculiar movie, but it really worked for me. also, there’s something really satisfying about seeing two women, wrapped up in each other’s arms, screaming at the moon in the middle of the night

oh wow the simultaneous existential fear and passionate obsession with emotional intimacy

“i’ve already started writing a song about us. - it’s about you and me falling in love for the first time. but, like, we have invented falling in love. you know? we invented it and then the rest just copy us. like doing covers of our falling in love”

time is fake and i’m so fucking sad

“because it hurts! because it hurts so much! that’s why i know, it’s fucking real, ok?”

intimacy is so TERRIFYING.... to be your own person from birth that breathes and sleeps and thinks and then to willingly share yourself with someone else and give them a part of you, if not all of you: not just close in proximity physically but in every cell of you and every thought and to attain that closeness seems almost impossible... none of this is coherent! all i know is that i’ve been crying for an hour and this movie Does something to me

oh my god the gays truly deserve so much better than this

all existential and intimacy crisis aside, alia shawkat's life in this film is....So Ideal??? sis can drive, has a car, a dope house to herself, pretty cool job and is out every night livin her best gay life and to top it all off straight up adopts a dog? When will I too live like this?? also alia will u pls be my wife??

this was good for like the first 30 mins but then it became kind of insufferable, i just couldn’t bring myself to care about any of the characters. it’s an interesting concept that was treated with honesty but i feel it could have been executed better

this film is just dramatic on a whole other level.not only that they are also actually insane . i skipped most of this film but yea it’s not good so uh yea

I have met few people that call their parents by their first names but goddamn they are all insane

Really thought I was gonna love this and I did for a little bit but then also I didn’t

So good!

everywhere i turn laia costa is there, shes everywhere

i love be gay
so simple, honest, and captivating in a very comfortable way, i think. this didn’t always work for me, but i think that’s the point? both performances here really blew me away, and the dialogue felt so natural that i forgot this is an actual film several times. i really liked this!

This movie makes me feel like I just went to therapy

don’t watch this movie with your mom. i really liked it!

Um filme bom pra refletir sobre relacionamentos e pessoas. Não cheguei a criar expectativa, mas fiquei bem satisfeita. Quase saciada assim.

Literally can't think of anything I hate more than this movie

The fear of intimacy is really shattering and I think this film encapsulated it well without being pretentious or seeking to be overly profound. I like that it was raw and honest. I didn’t really enjoy myself watching but i could empathise and I felt personally spoken to in a way.
