even though this movie sounds like it's very different from The Wind Rises--in fact, so different that maybe you're wondering why I mention it as eliciting similar complicated feelings.
Did you talk to me—or write about—The Wind Rises? I remember when rushthatspeaks saw it, but I never saw it myself.
I guess because it (or really: your review) makes me think about what the purpose of art is (okay, there are multiple-multiple purposes) and what it says and does, apart from its purpose(s). And also, it makes me think about how there are fundamentals of life and human nature that we don't seem to get beyond.
That's a reasonable thing to feel complicated about. One of the many, many movies I haven't written about is something from 1925 that startled me the other night with its immediate modern relevance, which was at once fascinating and sort of depressing, since in nearly a century you would have thought some problems might have been solved.
Actually, a neon brick sounds kind of lovely--though I fully believe the film is even more so.
To be honest, now that I've come up with the image, I think it might be an excellent surrealist art object.
