Daisies

"This Film is dedicated to all those whose sole purpose of indignation is a trampled on trife." Holy moly guacafrickinmole, this is the best film I’ve seen all month. It’s the kind of movie that makes me want to switch up my top four. I originally watched this on January 1st for New Year’s, and I’ve been so busy with school that I’ve of course forgotten to log it, so I rewatched the last 30 minutes. Oh god, this is the best thing to ever happen to film, ever. It was hypnotizing colors constantly swapping around. It felt like how you’d see the world if the world were pure ecstasy. The metaphors were deeply rooted throughout. I love when filmmakers use symbols instead of doing everything in your face, because at that point in time you couldn’t criticize the government and you still can’t in most countries right now so these movies are incredibly inspiring. Also, Czech New Wave might be the best thing I’ve ever come across in my life, and I’m so fucking pissed that I can’t just binge four of these movies a day because it’s currently exam week. Story of my life.
