Flo Lieb’s review published on Letterboxd:
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
And focusing it on the sky
The ninety nine red balloons go by
In this world someone who dies at 41 is considered "old" by teenagers. That's depressing since as a 35 year old I'm pretty close to that now.
The ending makes sense in regard of the Cold War era the movie was made, but how amazing would it have been if all those nukes would've been real and everything not a game?
