People don't get it!! Glad I didn't listen to the reviews!
26 February 2023
I didn't wanna watch this film first because of the bad reviews! I'm glad I'm usually never listen to reviews and always make my own opinions when it comes to movies bc let's face it, it's all a matter of taste.

Most people seem disappointed in it, too slow, no plot, bad acting, horrible ending bla bla. Ok but in my opinion this was a very well done movie that made me feel awkward almost during the whole film. Meaning it made me feel something that most movies these days don't! It was uncomfortable to watch mainly because of the topic of the mother being ashamed of her background, hiding her roots & her past. She obviously hated her old life and was mentally ill. This movie covers so many psychological aspects! It's an important story to tell and it's not meant to make you feel good or to have a happy ending. I'm tired of people reviewing movies bad bc they didn't like the end! Ever watched a Lynch movie seriously!

I can only suggest you to watch it, to have an open mind and to get your own opinion.

Ps the end was brilliant, it closed the circle perfectly fine!
