Three Months
God. Damn. Most of the five star ratings I give are jokes but holy shit. this fucking movie. god motherfucking DAMN. I don’t even know where to start but this is one of the most beautiful movies i’ve seen in a while. Set in the summer of 2011 (ah yes a period piece.) The nostalgias going crazy. The main character, played outstandingly by Troye Sivan, literally listens to kidz bop at one point. There were pop culture references but not to the point where it’s obnoxious. And they the few references there were, were subtle and timeless which I heavily appreciated because I recently watched Free Guy. Adding to the already intoxicating levels of reminiscent energy, is the COLORGRADING. I am such a fucking whore for colorgrading oh my god. The movie is so beautiful to look at. The colors pop out and the very clear color splash on white motif throughout the film is just so great on the eyes. One of my other favorite parts of this movie was how goddamn quotable that bitch was. “And fuck you for making me like taylor swift!” “Eh her pussy was loose anyways” “The young and the sexless” “They can smell it on me. what? shame.” “FUCKING FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCK” (my personal favorite). Troye Sivan and Brianne Tju deliver a fantastic illustration of adolescent platonic love. The dialogue was realistic and simple. This movie also tackled Estha’s religious guilt PERFECTLY. Im literally just rambling at this point so i’m gonna cut it out but WATCH THIS FUCKING MOVIE!!!!!!!!!
