Watched it last night and everything about it surprised me. It’s so goofy and so terrifyingly sad without any tonal inconsistences, all while maintaining a constant speed of 700 mph. Even at 4 hours long it doesn’t give you time to blink. There’s nothing in the universe, I think, that so totally encapsulates the feeling of Beethoven’s Allegretto when it’s so loud it’s in your bones. It’s not for everyone, but I’ve never seen anything else remotely like it in my life.
