Some website called this the second-best anime movie of all time, and it's on YouTube, and it's only sixty minutes, so sure, why the hell not?
And you know what? This was a very pleasant experience! For the first time in my life - not that there's a huge sample size, here - I understand the power and beauty of, uh, good anime. Soon enough I'll be digging deep into Here's what I wrote over on Letterboxd:
A very, very pretty movie about a handful of earnest, brooding teenagers mediating profoundly on love and loss, wise way the hell beyond their years with their poetic thoughts and their lucid dreams. This is Murakami meets Malick with a heavy dose of melancholy and an absolutely beautiful score. Plus - sixty minutes! What's not to like?
Cool.
