Eternity

this movie is genuinely beautiful i loved it sm. i found this take of the afterlife with religion and romance so interesting and it left me thinking alot about myself and perspective on life and relationships. there seems to be alot of themes of christianity between mary and larry, the idea of a paradise / heaven, spiritual guidance, purgatory, etc. watching this with my grandparents definitely did not help it was even more gut wrenching, my papa was saying how it reminded him of a biblical story of a woman choosing between 2 husbands. the couple was christian and the fact they didnt choose the world curated for heaven and christians shows something about the dynamics between romance and religion. the concept of the junction being purgatory and hell being the void was such a good fascinating take especially how it contrasts the variety of eternity’s / heaven. also the ac representing guidance angels, especially anna and how she felt her job shifted from being meaningful and changing to just being a usual sellout job and how it can represent the history of the Church and its position. overall, this movie left me wide eyed and thinking alot
