Past Lives 2023
What are we if not little fragments of our past? The irony that life is so unforeseeable yet so governed by our past is one to reflect upon.

Nice message overall but by hammering it so much, I feel it got a bit lost and repetitive throughout the end, especially during the last (in my opinion, unnecessary) 20 minutes. Also, turns out there IS such a thing as too much slowmo.
Generally, a film very well done that celebrates the art of filmmaking and visual effects. Oh, and some good kung fu scenes in there as well.

Goddamnit. So much screaming. So much testosterone. Don’t really know what to do with myself rn.
Eggers surely didn’t hold back… not even a bit. A true masterpiece in every sense and a feast to the eyes. Visually perfect. One-tone performance by Skaarsgard, slight overacting by Anya Taylor-Joy, great performance by Kidman, and Defoe is always a pleasant surprise, not to mention Bjork. The blur between reality and fantasy is nicely portrayed. Every scene, every dialogue, every single thing is there for a reason.
