A small detail I haven't really seen get brought up
I wanted to point this out because it shook me up but when she's crying in the car about her dad with her head on the dashboard, and then she looks over at him completely deadpan with not a tear in sight.
Haven't seen anyone mention it and wanted to throw my coin in the well.
This movie changed something in me really. I had a feeling about it and went solo to see it on Monday and what a gut wrenching ride it was. The moment shit starts getting weird, the tone gets darker and darker and more bleak all the way up until the last second. There's no real breathing room that you don't pay for gravely. I walked out of the theaters in tears thinking "My God, that poor thing."
Not to mention waking up several times that night certain I was seeing Nikki in the corner of my room.
And it's interesting to see how everyone's reaction fit into the theme of the film itself, how so many aspects were left vague and open, causing us to *obsess* over figuring out what was really going on, and the depth and nuance and underlying themes.
Anyway, I feel like alot of us are riding for this movie in a big ole visceral boat and I'm all fucked up over literally every aspect of this 😅 I have plenty more to say but with leave it at this for now. Much love 💜
