"Dancer in the Dark" has got to be THE saddest and...idunno, I don't know how else to describe it.
I look at Bjork totally different now. At first, I liked some of her music but I thought she was completely crazy.
After watching her in an interview, she actually seemed to make sense to me. And then, when I watched this film,
I just I don't know... She is still a little crazy, but she is very much human.
That movie was just horrifying, poignant, and depressing at the same time. I never felt so emotional watching a movie before.
I just saw "La Vie En Rose" last Sunday (how fitting) and I cried probably twice. I think I cried like 5 times watching this movie.
And it's not one of those crying sessions where you realize that it's just a movie and that it's stupid crying about it. I think the only
reason I cried in "La Vie en Rose" was because it actually happened to Edith Piaf. "Dancer in the Dark" is fiction, although some
situations could probably actually happen (it's unlikely though). I think it flowed through feelings and acting rather than dialogue or
the music that was in it. It manipulates your feelings so much.
But anyway, I just loved it afterwards. I didn't think I would want to watch it again. It's just so damn depressing, but I really want to now.
And it's 5:37 in the morning. I started watching this at like 1:30...But I was watching it on Youtube, so it sort of added more time to load.
Man..... Idunno. I think this is probably my favorite movie now. Amelie will have to be second now. =(. I guess when I feel really happy
Amelie can be my favorite and when I'm existentialistic I'll watch this movie. lol.
I haven't posted on here in a while. I wasn't planning to, but I had to write something about this movie. Just to release my thoughts
and emotions out. I should talk about the Revue and the dancing and stuff, but ehh.. I just don't feel like it.
I want to sleep now, I really do. But I can't. =( I can't stop thinking about the film.
Oh man..Idunno..whatever, I'll stop it here.
