Magical Realism is alive and well in this film...
...I was left with mouth agape for the entire final hour of this stunning masterpiece. Now I'm going to attempt to decode the many strange figures and apparitions throughout the film (like the man in red emerging from the water with the rope).
I think in many ways this is a film about self-punishment and voluntary martyrdom in the face of temptation (among many other things). Does anyone else see this?
