"Everything is more complicated than you think. You only see a tenth of what is true. There are a million little strings attached to every choice you make; you can destroy your life every time you choose. But maybe you won't know for twenty years. And you'll never ever trace it to its source. And you only get one chance to play it out." - the Minister, Synecdoche, NY
I have never felt more like a movie was meant for me than when I saw Synecdoche, NY. Really. There have been lots of movies that I think I was meant to see. But while I sat in that theater - by myself, because no one else wants to see this movie, apparently - I had this uncomfortable rush of nausea and anxiety that you get when you see two people glancing at you and mumbling to each other. Two people who know you, and who might maybe be in a position to know something you don't. It was a messy movie. It had lots of weird loose ends and, I'll be honest, it was bleak as hell. But I came out of it feeling...clean...
On a side note, if tattoos were actually like they were in the movie, I would ink. Myself. Up. They were amazing.
.EDIT.
I spent a lot of time with my grandparents last weekend. It was very "Welcome Home."
I'm pretty lonely here.
