tilda swinton is a hysterically funny hurricane and julio torres (the legend who gave us SNL’s Papyrus) is inimitable. truly a one-of-a-kind film about the horrors of the American immigration system and capitalism that you cannot go see fast enough!
This movie is like a perfect representation of my own fears about immigration and trying to become an artist in any sense. I needed this movie so badly! Julio Torres you're gonna be big, kid! Also Tilda Swinton!
i want to kiss julio's brain SO bad. i loved everything: the theatrics, ale's fantastical way of processing information, the toy concepts, the perseverance of inherently artistic dreamers, the colors, tilda swinton etc etc etc. and it's sooo relatable to me, as a latina who once dreamed of emigrating, and the child of protective parents 😭 couldn't recommend it enough
nobody at your bullshit email job is going to perish if you are away from your computer for fifteen minutes. don’t clock out. get paid to be in the sun. relish in every moment that you have no Slack messages to answer and do something that counteracts the soul-crushing pain of staring at a screen all day. whether you rest your eyes, read a chapter of a book, walk around your block - whatever it is, steal time because your employer probably isn’t paying you well enough to merit staring into the Outlook abyss for eight hours.
