The Virgin Suicides
As expected, fucking heavy.
This movie broke my damn heart and made me feel way too much. This was actually the first film of Sofia Coppola’s that I have seen and I am now super intrigued to check out the rest of her filmography. This movie, having a very sensitive narrative was nonetheless hard to stomach. Movies like this always have my full engagement 100% of the time. It’s like something about it is so enticing that you can’t help but keep watching even though our main character(s) is in distress or is seeking help in some sort of way. It’s just heartbreaking. Sofia Coppola captured the relationship and individual personalities between the sisters so beautifully and was able to express an immense amount of heart to each of them. And all the performances were outstanding. I believe everyone should watch this movie at least once in their lifetime. Especially if you’re a parent because damn these parents fucking suuuucked. I’m very glad I finally knocked it off my watchlist.
5/5
