    Priscilla

    ★★★★

    Priscilla is a pretty unambitious movie, in the sense that it’s not trying to impress in any way, and probably won’t be a life-changer to anyone. It’s effective in what it sets out to achieve, but it’s pretty simple (and short!), and doesn’t bring anything new when seen in the broader context of Sofia Coppola’s work – which is always a bit disappointing when it comes to as big a director as she is…

    i’m not trying to say that…

    "If grandma hadn't let grandpa win that race, we wouldn't be here. Small things like that add up, into something greater than ourselves"

    beautiful and adorable though a bit repetitive and formula-made at times. either way, i'm so glad we have a good animated film category this year!! i missed good animation...
    p.s.: i seriously advise you watch out for the volume in this one and DON'T USE HEADPHONES! you have no idea how loud these kids can get
