You are right. Javier Bardem's performance left similar impression on me as well. And I was confused about a few things as well and I had to go back and re-watch bits and pieces. There are so many subtleties like for example one of the questions that arose in my mind was "How did Daniel know that the guy pretending to be his brother is not actually his brother?". Then I went back to the scene where they are on a beach and Daniel mentions "peach tree dance". When he doesn't get a reaction from the imposter , he repeats himself looking at him and get a lousy "yeah". That's when he realizes that this man is not his brother because he doesn't seem to remember "peach tree dance" which was probably something he believed his brother would have remembered.
Yes, indeed. I wish, this had been a series so we could have gotten more of it.
Well it's useful to me. Someone who hasn't watched a lot of movies from 2023 and wants to.
Those great movies. Unfortunately, I have already watched all of them. :/
It has nothing to do with being superior than thou. I used to love those movies but as I have grown older I have begun to find them silly. They are silly on purpose because they are meant to please younger audience.
Yes. I realize that on a rational level. And yet I am no longer attracted to mediocrity. I have brought it upon myself over the years. Just knowing it doesn't change the sad fact that my standards are too high. It's like drugs. You need more and more to get the same high.
That made me laugh. lol I won't.
I am well aware of that on a rational level. But knowing this on a rational level doesn't change the fact that I am biologically/psychologically not attracted anyone below average or even average. I need to feed my brain with something positive over a period of time.
Any recommendations? Any books?
Yes they can be. But the beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I am the beholder. And I am messed up.
