Resurrection
you know what happens when you experience life, well what happens when life experiences you back?
with resurrection, bi gan chooses to rewrite the history of cinema with a blood-stained pen. genuinely trance inducing and one of the greatest cinematic experiences of my life. i could write a full essay on this but i absolutely cannot tell you what it all meant. what i CAN say is that this has some of the most amazing cinematography and production design ever and an absolutely fantastic score. might be the greatest directorial effort literally in the history of making movies. everyone who sees this and is young is going to want to be a director as soon as it's finished. reminds me of the greatest dream i ever had, when upon contact with an entity, it told me to communicate in a more efficient language, immediately revealing to me all of human understanding. in resurrection, cinema is that language, and now all of life makes sense
