Variations

Synced with miscellaneous songs from Crumbling by Mid-Air thief In film there are two ways of including human beings. One is depicting human beings. Another is to create a film form which in itself has all the qualities of being human: tenderness, observation, fear, relaxation, the sense of stepping into the world and pulling back, expansion, contraction, changing, softening, tenderness of heart. The first is a form of theater while the latter is a form of poetry - Nathaniel Dorsky As I’ve gotten into movies I’ve realized how common it is for a film to make me feel nostalgic. I think the commonality of generational childhood allows a director to be able to make a feel that triggers nostalgia. While I still think it’s impressive I’m less in awe when I see something do this than I was a year ago or so. Very rarely if ever have I seen a film that put you in the position of a child. Every shot from the rain drops falling on a glass windshield to flowers and rivers puts you into a position of being a child. Genuinely so powerful as a medium.
