09/02/2022 Opaque sequences of words opaquely placed on top of opaque sequences of visuals. The stream-of-consciousness monologue that runs non-stop through the entire film has a handful of poetic and, when imparting meaningful information about the character, even touching moments, and I guess it's jumbled for a reason, not to mention that Jena Malone does a consistently great job with it, however it mostly makes for an unappealing, difficult and, coupled with the redundant visuals, boring watch.

It doesnt really go anywhere fascinating or do anyting suprising, but the mix of images and sounds does create something poetic and special. If Tarkovsky and Harmony Korine collaborated it would look like this. A strange mix of gender confusion, pop culture disgust and fascination, along a road of consumer emptiness and the need for spiritual fullfilment. My first Lukas Moodysson experience and I wasnt sure what to expect from the Swedish realist director who wiki describes as "an outspoken left wing socialist, feminist, and vegetarian and at the same time a profoundly spiritual Christian." This stream of consciousness movie where the only sound is from a young girls voice almost whispering while an overwieght man and a thin Asian women who seem to represent the same person (when one is not carrying the other on their back "Fando Y Lis" style) is not endearing, entertaining, or profound. I watched it all, and I felt like it was an honest look at the modern world, if a despairingly cliche one at times. If your curious it's on Youtube. I'm just not sure. See more 10/31/2009 Poetic and beautiful. This is a movie that you can relax to and move into. Turn inside it and feel the fragile girl's voice touch your heart and clean your thoughts. Make you feel like you are her and she's you. Feel her pain as your pain, and your pain as her pain. That you longing togheter to end the pain. See more 08/02/2009 A mesmerizing study of sexual identity, celebrity culture and media moulding. Perhaps a tad too long but a great experiment similar in style to avant garde film makers such as Kenneth Anger etc See more 04/25/2009 This is by far the most boring film I've ever seen, or maybe I just didn't understand it.
