Gonna talk about 1899 again bc why not
I watched it through my mother's indication and the wildest thing was stopping to compare interpretations at the end
She immediately saw it as a parallel to the allegory of reincarnation - the idea that all those people were running from something, just to live it all again, looping their own pain and mistakes; the idea that Maura and Daniel caused it out of despair from loosing a son (which makes a lot of sense since she is a mother!)
I fell in the rabbit hole of the mind analysis - the idea that I don't know what is happening, that I don't trust completely any of the information given - I feel like I just saw an uncompleted puzzle I can't exactly take allegories from, too incomplete to assume. But I'm also fascinated specifically by the idea that we truly don't know what reality is, it is truly in an individual level merely what our brain processes so who's to say?
Also we watched in different ways, she watched dubbed, I original, which means she lost the fun of the multilingual struggle and how touching it was to see communication that was above words, which, sad (I was rambling solidly to her about it)
#1899#ohhh enjoy my rambles#I just LOVE shows that scratch my existential dread#extra notes of our compared interpretations:#I wholeheartedly agree 2099 is still a simulation while she didn't look at that angle before#I still think Daniel and Elliot are some level of ''not real'' while she interpreted their story at face value#(which made me look at their story closer too! they're fascinating regardless of what you might think)#We both think There's Something to Eyk and Maura#''I lowkey think Eyk is her actual husband mom'' ''Oh yeah they had something going on right'' ''EXACTLY''#I realize I absolutely get Maura's mental spiralling like YEAAAAH what is reality and YEAAAHH human brain complex and tricky girl!!!#1899 netflix
