"This is my life...
And it's nothing."
Aptly titled, to say the least.
Quite simply,
A critique of,
And an homage to,
Everything.
To the present,
The past,
The future.
Everything.
Sadness.
Truth.
Life.
Beauty.
Everything.
The best comparison that I can make is if Emmanuel Lubezki and Larry David decided to collaborate on a film together in Rome.
And the reason why this film works so well as both a comedy and also a poignant meditation on humanity is because of its perfect pacing; it is carefully constructed and meticulously organized through each scene.
The world is a gorgeous, ugly place.
"Beyond there is what lies beyond.
I don't deal with what lies beyond."
