"This is a snake skin jacket, its a symbol of my individuality and my belief in personal freedom."
Since I first saw this movie, I had to stop myself from gushing about it. The romance is tender but ferocious. The drama of the Elvis influence combined with the whimsy of the Wizard of Oz.
Nicholas Cage's rendition of Love Me by Elvis..Side characters with the most bizarre backstories..
This movie immediately entered my top 4.
David Lynch's imagination makes me feel at home. He's not afraid of the outlandish, and he's confident in his work. I aspire to be like him.

Fresh vibes, kind of cristallyzes the director soul. Nicolas Cage is such a character, more than ever.

Finally a media product honest about the psychosexual trauma and deranged generational entitlement of millennials. The Fielder-Safdie meetup bridges the confounding cinéma vérité of the former with the disconcerting aesthetic of the latter. To be sure, I'd call this a "drama;" but, as is the case with the auteurs here, the blurring of "reality" with "fiction" ends up presenting a truth larger than the sum of its parts. Well-meaning liberals gentrify the frontier, while excusing themselves from the shitty and destructive behavior that they knowingly partake in. Emma Stone is truly un-believable, an uncanny powerhouse. There's no boundary here, in the Derridian sense: you are at fault as you watch, especially when Nathan shows us his tiny, tiny, tiny little dick. "It's not a big deal and I'm not insecure about it."

At first I was thinking, "This playlist is making me feel stupid."
But then I simply stopped thinking.
The smooth-brained wonder of hearing "Moves Like Jagger" for the *nth time - music as anesthetic. I hear this song. I feel nothing. "Passionfruit," literally three times in a row. There's nothing left to feel, they squeezed all the feeling out.
No more thought.
