including a lot of metaphors, niche authors and rhetorical devices doesn’t make your movie sophisticated or good.
i enjoyed the acting, to an extent. the plot was fucking terrible for a movie about writing. not to mention including a character, establishing her as a lesbian and then erasing her entire sexuality by making her simp over a 40+ year old man.
with that being said i feel bad for winnie, she obviously had a crush on cairo and got heartbroken.
only good thing this movie did is include jeff buckley but it’s being wasted on a wannabe sophisticated, cringey, poor-plotted movie.
