If I had to describe this movie in one word, I'd say it's warm. It's natural, full of heart and introduces you to characters that are anything but one-dimensional + a story that's easy to relate to, even if you don't have similar experiences.
And let's not forget that's it's kinda revolutionary for Taiwan itself and it's filmmakers - as Taiwan became the first Asian country to legalise same-sex marriage and recently held it's first marriage ceremony.

And I couldn't help but wonder - will I ever watch an Antonioni movie that is fairly enjoyable and interesting? Or are my professors just making me watch all the bad ones instead of the ones that are actually good?

This is such a weird movie - not bad, not amazing, some scenes feel like something from an outer space and some are just too beautiful. I wasn't sure if I like it more than average drama (and I'm a Dolan fanboy) until the ending that really hit right in the feels. And that nod to My Own Private Idaho... chills.

And that's my favorite movie. Just like that.
