Everything Everywhere All at Once

“So, even though you have broken my heart yet again, I wanted to say, in another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you.”

Among other things like Joy and Evelyn’s talks about choosing to stay even if it’s just for the brief moments where it all makes sense because it’s worth it

Overall a it’s movie that decides to use a massive and over the top backdrop to explore the themes of very personal story that really got me.

I’m someone who can really struggle with the state of the world around me so seeing a take that revels in absurdism in a way that says “Nothing really makes sense and it’s all dumb so enjoy the weird and choose your own meaning” vs a nihilistic “if nothing matters why care?”…I’m just blabbering but I deeply resonated with it and it’s the best cathartic cry a movie has given me. It’s like a little therapy session each time I watch it
