probably a bit overstuffed but i firmly believe this is one of his most beautifully written on top of being his most stylistically ambitious, especially for this new era. he seems so hesitant about going full meta but ends up there anyway with Howitzer consistently toying with what should and shouldn't find itself in the final publication. almost reads like a fantasy to leave it all out there and die before seeing the consequences. this all makes it more compelling…

really truly think carla is one of the best doing it these days, every time i watch one of her films i float a little. makes sense why some of the dreamier elements of this work so naturally. gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous

super my thing and embarrassed to realize this is my first jafar panahi. masterful all around and an eerily subtle descent into hell. could say this about 90% of these cannes films but a bit much for 8am 😵‍💫
