I remember when this movie came out. For some reason I heard nothing be extremely negative reviews so I never saw it. Six years later I finally found it on TV and decided I'd give it a shot. I'm incredibly thankful that I did, and I don't understand why people had such poor reviews for this movie upon its release. I have since picked up the DVD.
There are many complexities and subtle nuances throughout the film, and you might find yourself asking "what the hell is going on?" And many people criticize the film for that, but these people are missing the point. This movie is about beauty. And if you get confused, it's OK! That isn't important. A cerebral analysis of this movie is not important (although it lends itself very well to such an analysis if you want). Just sit back and enjoy the beauty of this movie.
