i watched it in theaters for the 20th anniversary and i couldn't help but not understand it very well. the plot was good and i liked that, but i mean in a cinema way.
some things i liked in the movie were the scenery. i really liked the aesthetic of it all, being in that small little place. i loved the clothes and cars, and i would kill to be in that little world. the guys were hot too. rest in piece, heath ledger. you were so fine and i love you.
some things i didn't like were the way the guys kept getting with women. i get that, at the time, they kinda had to and they didn't know any better, but they just pissed me off tbh. not just jack and ennis, but david harbour's character randall, who was married to anna faris' character lashawn malone. ennis as a character pissed me off so bad. completely emotionally disconnected and unavailable to jack, to his wife, michelle williams' character alma, alma jr, jenny, and linda cardellini's cassie. um!!!! you were so disconnected from the worl your boyfriend, girlfriend, and wife broke up with you!!!! another thing i didn't like was how jack died. i hated that and i felt so bad. i think about it a lot since it's such a grey area. if he died at a gas station, wouldn't someone see it? and even if he didn't, there's no report he didn't, which is futher evidence that he didn't die there. if the guys that killed him worked at a gas station, that would probably explain what happened. or maybe his baddie wife, anne h
what i meant earlier by i couldn't understand it in a cinema way was that i have a habit of picking apart things in movies to determine foreshadowing or whatever, like parallels or patterns. the only thing i was able to figure out was the colors in their clothes. i think when a character begins to grow cold, they wear blue, like denim. when they're more exposed emotionally, they wear beige. not sure if this applies all the time or to anyone except the guys, but it's something i saw.
