I saw it when I was 19, right after it came out and during a lonely time when I was all angsty and shit. So I loved the fuck out of it. I'm pretty lukewarm to it and 16-17 years later. It's very overhyped now and I'm more mature but I still kinda like it. It didn't seem like the kinda movie you'd like and cite as an example of anything so I asked. Also I remembered that you hate that version of Mad World. The director's cut seemed kinda Lucasesque to me. And underlined that Kelly had no idea what the thing meant or the plot in general. And he changed music that was fine the way it was. It's fine to make a vague work that you don't really understand and leave to interpretation. It's a hack job to insert a buncha shit after the fact to try to make sense of something that can exist just fine as vague. I haven't seen Southland Tales. The Box was complete shit.
