My thoughts
This movie is one of the strangest movies I have ever seen.
And I'm saying this as someone who's watched some seriously messed up shit. This isn't some gore-fest but it's just weird.
It made me feel indescribable feelings. Almost every emotion ever. It was hauntingly beautiful, creepy at times, cute, and also
sad. One of the saddest movies ever. Even though it's one of my favourites, I don't think I'll rewatch it much. Maybe in ten years time.
