incredible film, though maybe not the best watch as a recently graduated English major, a bit too relatable in that regard. Basically everything good about Metropolitan is distilled to near perfection here, the quiet tragedy of having run into these people going out before feels even more potent, the deception of the petit bourgeois ("most authors are still conceited dopes"), the aimlessness and sometimes insufferability, the cynicism and genuine earnestness regarding a society in decline, of human connections succeeding despite that.

basically an awesome hangout movie with a bunch of annoying yet charming young socialites enjoying the titular "last days of disco". love that this is a late 80s period piece made less than a decade after it was actually set.

so much to talk about, the sunglasses, the scarf, the fresh baguette and coffee, the always lovely cafe setting. I think this is the most swag ever captured on camera I aspire to be at this level
