That film is OK at best and I challenge anyone to tell me which parts they found in any way memorably affecting or even just... fresh

man you dumped some spice on that take. bare minimum, it was a love letter to a city that has been treated as an also-ran to bakersfield for most of it's life.

OK and that's great, but like, man, to most audiences they won't be able to tell it's not set in the familiar environs of SoCal. Sorry but it's true. Even the sense of place felt half-assed to me as an outsider

I completely get why people liked it. But I was also a teen living in an unfashionable provincial place at that time, and I thought it felt like it was made in 2003 (rather than just being set then), based on how recycled so much of it felt. Just me tho!

y' know i saw the trailer in the theaters and was like "great a mannered period piece about a tortured artist. fuck i can't believe i'm gonna go see this" and, i'll just say my expectations were incorrect.

It's stunningly original, sometimes to its detriment. Without giving much away I wasn't buying the female lead on several levels. As a piece of visual art its insanely good tho, and the script is, once again, unlike anything else

I loved her. If she does't match them the whole film falls apart. I thought she was amazing.
