Really pretty movie visually. It’s a super dry and awkward film in the best way possible. It’s this really relatable story of teenage heartbreak filtered through the more than slightly distrurbed mind of the films protagonist, Oliver. This kid is a piece of work 😭. But seriously, this film perfectly captures how teenagers think they have everything figured out, when they are far out of their depth and the grave mistakes that come from not having a fully formed brain.
Amazing soundtrack too, Alex Turner is featured prominently. As an Arctic Monekys fan I was quite pleased

this was so incredibly subversive of any expectations that I had for it- I hadn’t seen a tonne of stuff about it other than the trailers that came up on ig reels. Still, about an hour into this, I was absolutely blown away by how many questions the film could ask me without me feeling uncomfortably overwhelmed.
of course Sebastian Stan was brilliant but Adam Pearson shone through the cast tenfold, his natural charisma and magnetism is so unique. also I adored how much they committed to making this look like an late 2000s celluloid New York indie flick, super dope choice.
I’m content with letting this film stew in my brain for a while before I watch it again but as it stands, I‘m pleasantly surprised by this!!

a long term relationship I was in this year ended in February, and it broke me a little bit. Now I feel ready to fall in love again. But I have a problem: I look for it everywhere. I guess my body feels it’s starved of love. I understand that I must be discerning and not chase love to places that could hurt me but I want to dive head first. I am loving myself more and more, and hope to soon find someone who will could also see the eczema that covers my skin and only see love

I’m a romantic, giving up kissing is like giving up air. I would mourn the loss of ranch however
