[the Talking Can]

it was different than i expected, in a positive way...way more melancholy, but languid in a way that i've always enjoyed from Korine

i can still hear franco repeating "spraang break...spraaaang break"

i loved the saturated, neon light everything was bathed in...i got the sense that everything was over before it even began just from the lighting

that's as close to normative film making as i want him to get...any more plot-y and the basically non-existent motivations would have become an issue (for me)

also, the scene where the truck circles the diner as they rob it was a gem

a tangent, but i just saw God Only Forgives, and it's a real piece of shit compared to this, imo, just as basic film making...it tries to do something similar with lighting and tempo as the focus (but more severe, of course) and really put me off
