Russian Ark
*me: "just gonna watch a chill russian movie"
russian ark: “cool. let’s casually walk through 300 years of history in ONE take while a french ghost judges everything.”*
this felt less like a movie and more like i accidentally astral projected into the hermitage during a history exam. confused? yes. bored? never. that ballroom ending?? lowkey spiritual.
did i fully get it? NO.
did it make me feel cultured as hell? ABSOLUTELY.
