**“and what a waste... if it could've maybe brought us together, or something, if you could've just said "i’m sorry" or faced up to what happened, maybe then we could do something with this, but you can't take responsibility for anything! so, now i can't accept. and i can't forgive. because... because NOBODY admits anything they've done!"** a phenomenal piece of film right here folks, and yet again snubbed by every major award body and will never receive its full tens as it should. toni colette is sooooo raw and intense here, unlike anyone you’ve ever seen before. her grief, her trauma, her pain, her desperation, her dedication, her love, her perseverance despite all she’s endured. for the love of her family. if i could give this whole family a happy ending i would because every moment with her made me want to cry, like i needed to cry for them. the seance, the dinner, the insane ending, the morning when she found out (her cries are implanted in my brain) i just felt so bad. each of them are very tense with one another and you just want them to have one good day, especially annie (she was without question robbed of an oscar). this is truly the movie of pure family despair. alex wolff needs an oscar too he was absolutely popping off here as always. gabriel byrne im just happy to see you. DID YOU KNOW MILLY SHAPIRO IS A TONY NOMINEE AND SHARES AN OLIVIER WITH THE OTHER MATILDAS CUZ SHE WAS FRICKIN MATILDA ON BROADWAY?!?!?!? ari aster directs the fuck out of his movies and watching this the whole time i was thinking “this is what MEN wanted to be”. naked old people and all. i’ve watched this film many times before but this was the first watch where everything really started to make sense. you can see how clearly structured this was around annie and making her look like the bad guy, gassing her up completely while steve and peter are given all the pity. steve is just trying to keep his family together and peter… yeahhhhhh again absolute torture and despair, these people. and ill tune in every single time until i memorize the damn script. colin stetson you will get it and it won’t be pretty (complimentary)

yes jedediah and octavius doomed yaoi but the concept of mickey rooney and dick van dyke beating the shit out of ben stiller was disturbing and amazing rami malek was so young here holy shit and also ROBIN WILLIAMS

hi look at me i’m alex garland lemme pretend to be ari aster for a second! i made a movie centered around grief and loss with a very loose veil of “men are bad. and toxic masculinity.” and because i wanna be ari aster lemme slap a bunch of shit that doesn’t make sense to turn a nothingburger message into a 90 something minute hellscape, with the last 15 mins being the worst of course! what’s worse than people being stuffed in bears or one having their father be a giant penis inhabiting their mother’s home? could it be watching a leaf-faced man give birth out of his vagina to a boy with the same face, who then magically impregnates himself and gives birth from straight out the belly to a full grown man also with the same face, who then also impregnates himself to give birth out of his fucking back to another fully grown man with his face, who then impregnates himself and gives birth to yet another fully grown man from his fucking mouth, feet first?? no it couldn’t possibly…. such such such good performances wasted on bullshit

lanthimos u have done it once again mrs stone come to the FRONT!!! JESSE MF PLEMONS! i am in awe of everything u do aiden delbis/don, u truly deserved better this is just absolute madness but i am so here for it. i laughed, i got scared, i got nervous. i felt like i was being convinced too. maybe they’re telling the truth, but it would be so funny if she turned out to actually be an alien right??? right… will say, message received. humanity is sealing its own fate and there’s not a lot of time left to turn back. i don’t blame michelle for the decision she made, i don’t blame teddy for his anger and distrust to michelle for his mother, an addict looking for a way out, i don’t blame don for wanting to have a better life for himself yet not realizing what teddy is doing to him. every character spoke to me in their own way and i loved it. each of them were so intelligent in their own ways, even if one was a lil crazy. and the ending is beautifully absurd (whatever that means for these damn movies). as well as the absolutely bitchin score oh my GODDD jerskin fendrix u psycho!!!! needed more alicia silverstone tho so half star off
