One of the most beautiful films I’ve ever seen: the colors, the characters, the message, the drama—I can’t really describe this without spoiling the movie but imagine Old Boy meets Titane kind of film. Overall amazing, and the music and dances were topnotch too.

I watched Amelie when I was 15 years old and it's been my favorite movie ever since. Something about her way of observing others, imperfectness, and absolute longing for a romanticism of life. Not to mention the gorgeous color pallet throughout the entire movie just has me close to tears. 10/10 recommend.

An amazing movie that is a little bit over 3 hours long (something I wish I had known when I went to watch it alone at Metrograph on a Sunday night). The scenes are beautiful and above all of that, a really meaningful movie. It’s an epic story about a young boy in Taiwan set in the early 1960s. I replay the scenes in my mind constantly and it’s become something that I’m constantly reflecting on about how to tell a violent story, beautifully.

This film is one of a kind. The topic is heavy but it's made in such a unique way I couldn't breathe till the end not only because of the plot but also cause it's so unbelievably beautiful. I think everyone should watch it at least once in their life: first because it shines light on a real issue and second- it's breathtaking and it has one of the best paced storytelling in a film I've seen. Plus if you believe we need more colorists in modern cinema this film will be a nice surprise.

going through my camera roll and found this film my friend developed when we both found a really cozy cafe in yongsan. went back there a year later and our letters were still hung up on the cafe’s wall too. i find myself missing the places , the people, and the food i’ve eaten for comfort when i used to live abroad. my nostalgia is feeling close to grief lately.

one of the prettiest game i’ve ever played! has an amazing soundtrack too. the theme of the game is a bit heavy but nonetheless very enjoyable and a cathartic game to play
