    This movie ends up telling a lot of people what they like about cinema. Maybe you wanted a three act story with characters arcs and a "moral of the tale", maybe you wanted to see your favourite celebrites, maybe you wanted an adrenaline thrill, or to see social norms challenged by comedy, maybe political cinema is your thing?

    I am on the autistic spectrum, like nature, and am interested in visual aesthetics. So the central region is an incredible thing for me. As a voracious cineraptor, all of the other registers I mentioned are fine for me too.
