Everything Everywhere All At Once

An aging Chinese immigrant is swept up in an insane adventure, where she alone can save what’s important to her by connecting with the lives she could have led in other universes.

Letterboxd:

[two seperate reviews, because they're short]

Started crying at the line about taxes and laundry and didn't stop until the movie ended this is one of the best things i’ve ever seen in my piece of shit life.

#a24 i don't think counts as indie anymore but i'm accepting this and beeaao movies #(before eeaao)#since the studio seems to have been indie at that time #don't think i have to say too much about this one. i love it.#the queer characters are mostly secondary but alternate universe evelyn is queer and she's the main character so.#counting it #i think you could also argue queer themes but i'd argue it's more about generational disconnect and reconnection and whatever #and that is affected by queerness but the queerness isn't really the point #which i really appreciate in this case #also going on the record here: stephanie hsu was ROBBED #give jamie lee curtis an emmy for that episode of the bear but give stephanie the oscar for this movie #she just had a harder role with more range and it was more impactful #and like the oscars aren't the tonys it's not a popularity contest #it's based on actual merit (and pretentiousness)#about movies
