I was lucky enough to see the premiere of it at Sundance for their midnight showing. I knew nothing. Ari Aster introduced it and apologized for it not being totally finished (there were a couple scenes where they hadn’t edited out strings and stuff). I couldn’t get it out of my head for a month.
I saw it Thursday before opening weekend with a crowd who wanted to be there and it was absolutely nuts, and then the next day I saw it opening night with a bunch of high schoolers in my showing and it was a blast. The answer I wish I could give is The Substance because I cannot even fathom how insane it would have been to witness and experience that fucking movie with 30 other people.
By Gustave Caillebotte. I’ve never seen light be painted like this. I’d never been stopped in my tracks by a painting before this. This was considered “vulgar” in its time. The fuck did those nerds know.
