first saw this as a kid, but sometimes i'll be making myself breakfast and suddenly think of the scene where margot tenenbaum steps out of the bus and sees richie for the first time in years. suddenly the world is in slow motion and 'these days' by nico plays in the background. idk if it's the warm colors, the dry melancholy, the nyc brownstones... this movie will just mix with memories of my own. i also get this feeling from some agnes varda movies, especially 'les plages d'agnes'... maybe because that one is about remembering.
everytime i watch this movie i feel like the big things in life arent so big, and the smaller things bring me so much more joy. been watching this since I was young (prolly shaped me in some strange ways)
some movies just give you a pure hit of nostalgia on the first watch and this is IT for me! i've seen it countless times now but it just makes you fffeeeeelllll in the best way
i find myself thinking about this one so often. this movie captures childhood more accurately than most, in my opinion. it’s slower, sure, but it’s so rich with characters and sounds and sunlight pouring over every scene of the agony of being a preteen and the complexity of being someone’s kid. highly recommend
nothing informs my style more than the people around me. whenever i'm in a new city i like going to well-curated stores (preferably with indie designers from said city/country/region) and cute thrift stores. i've found that's a good way of keeping one's silhouette interesting and ever-changing. also, that ensures that sometimes you'll have on something 'weird' from another place, and that'll pique interest in people you're with... keeping on a cycle of fashion inspiration :p
