My wife wants to watch this


I will have no choice

Have a book to read, lol! It's a long movie, and even longer if you aren't enjoying it. Did you watch it? (I see this post is from a month ago)

Did you end up watching this? After reading the description - that it's the same actor from childhood to adulthood and was shot over his lifetime - it sounds intriguing. But the trailer looks boring lol.

I wasn't so sure about it at first, but the movie is kind of exhilarating in a subtle way. The moments chosen in his life are just right to tell the story, and the acting is very realistic. It surprised me, more than just an experiment. Seeing that the actors are aging, and seeing the various eras go by, also helps it become very intimate.
