"maybe it was because i first saw it as a 17, 18 year old, or idk something about its melancholic pace, the lack of action, and the constant reminder that time always marches on with impunity and everything changes without actually waiting for you saying, "hello, are you ready for this?" just really"
"*nouvelle vague* by richard linklater, but i'm a godard nerd so maybe im biased"

"Linklater's first two Before movies & Dazed and Confused, Chaplin + Keaton movies, parts of Malick's filmography are all examples of movies that are generally positive but still have something to say."
