>>11016I saw the movie, I felt a couple of emotions watching it.
Billy reminded me a lot of Joaquin Phoenix's Joker, I think calling Billy an incel is an understatement, the guy is obviously broken, shattered, and empty inside, while he shows those traits, he presents many more problems, in a way he reminded me of myself, when he imagines killing himself, a tear ran down my cheek, that in the end he decided not to kill himself and not commit suicide was something beautiful and positive, but I see a single problem, the motive.
Billy suffers from many problems and traumas and urgently needs to see a psychologist, and one of those problems is obviously depression, that his magical cure is meeting a girl seems weak to me, especially if she is docile and likes him just like that, of course, the actor is handsome, but we needed to see more about Layla's psychology, maybe it can only be summarized as she likes bad guys.
but seriously, that love is the solution to years of bad thoughts seems silly to me, years ago I saw a similar movie, a boy who wasn't even depressed and called suicide prevention, ending up hospitalized with people who really had problems while he was just an empty teenager throwing a tantrum, I don't remember the name of that movie, but in that help center he meets a girl who tried to kill herself, and in the end they both fall in love and have their happy ending.
That they impose on me that the magical solution is that a partner falls from the sky seems very illogical to me and prevents me from taking this movie entirely seriously, the ending even feels like a hallucination of Billy, as if Layla had never existed and it all happened in his mind.
Leaving that aside, the scene of the father singing and her dancing, that's cinema, maybe I don't know about shots, what camera it was filmed with or what kind of lenses were used, but the movie is good, I recommend it, I give it a 7/10
taking advantage of the movie space, I would really like a movie about the Cotton Rabbit and the Grumpy Tree.
It's a captivating story full of emotion, I couldn't express how much I liked it, not even in this life or a thousand lives, I even made a small fan art of it
Why am I mentioning the Cotton Rabbit story now?
I think it's the perfect contrast between the grumpy tree with Billy and the rabbit with Layla, of course, in terms of story, the Cotton Rabbit is far superior, it doesn't need much background, its simplicity is what makes it special and unique, I would really love to see a movie about the Cotton Rabbit, and I propose that you help the pretty boy make it a reality someday.
Because whether it's Buffalo 66 with its broken protagonist, or a simple hug from a bunny to a tree, the message is practically the same.
Sometimes we need someone to be there for us, someone who simply gives us a hug even if we don't want to be touched.
