Enter The Void is a movie that feels like taking so much acid you're straight-up sent into Purgatory. Nothing will ever make me feel like this, I loved-hated the experience
@sydfsh@the_2734 Nontheless I did enjoy it and find the Backrooms concept good enough to justify it's existance as well as the possibilities a sequel may explore
Rivette was lowkey right on Kubrick, yet missed entirely that that's the entire reason his films work.
I love Kubrick to death and that's BECAUSE he feels like a recluded analyst peeking into human emotion through the context of philosophy and literature, not in spite of it
@FaGoat44 I wouldn't go as far as to claim that the entire film is about that, or that the critique is anything but surface-level, but yeah I guess it does exist
the idea that every prestige movie has to be have a writer-director is disastrous imho. there's like four directors who are good screenwriters and two screenwriters who are good directors.
@FaGoat44 I think the Backrooms concept is fascinating but I don't think the film itself has much of interest to say about our current political climate. Sure it references the subconscious, the Internet and A.I a lot, but it's just that: referencing ideas.
@the_2734 I mean there is definitely something to talk about, but, at least to me, it isn't much. I feel like the film only gets very surface level with it's themes while parading a kind of psychological/thematic complexity it does not have
