The Raging Moon
watched The Raging Moon today and my heart’s broken rn... give back my tears 😭😭🫵🏻🫵🏻

Malcolm McDowell shows such a different side here compared to his role in A Clockwork Orange. Soft, vulnerable, and painfully human. The romance between Bruce and Jill feels so tender and real, which makes the tragedy hit even harder. It’s not just a love story, it’s about dignity, loss, and finding connection in the darkest places. First disability love movie I’ve ever watch 🤍

that ending absolutely breaks me HELP 😇 this film doesn’t go for easy sentimentality, it goes straight for the truth like—

"love can be the most beautiful thing you experience, even if it doesn’t last forever." ❤️‍🩹

honestly really beautiful. glad i watched it because I was wavering between this and some slasher, i don't even watch romance like that but i loved it....but the end was obvious from the middle mark. those euros can never appreciate just love for the beautiful thing it is.
