Better Days

i was not prepared for this movie and i don’t think you can be. that jail scene. both of them just sitting there. no words. no music. just falling apart in front of each other in complete silence. i didn’t even realize what it was doing to me until it was too late. the ending is what broke me completely. because it doesn’t stop. another kid. another cycle. the world just keeps grinding people like her into nothing and moves on like that’s just how things are. this movie made me grieve for people i’ll never meet. and i think that’s the whole point.
