Pick your cinema, get a nudge before it leaves screens.
my god this is flooring. its framing device should be so stilted--here's a movie consisting of random flashbacks to a woman's life at age 10! but it feels so seamless and true to life. who among us doesn't randomly fixate on the small injustices done to us as children, or, more importantly, our own awkward mistakes and their imagined reverberations?eating the pineapple! the conversation about cloudy days! and then THAT ENDING. I feel very lucky to have seen this!!!
