This Palme d?Or winner is even more lush and magical than Enfermedad tropical y mucho más coherente que Felizmente tuyo — large swaths of which I found unwatchable — and, even though I’ve never been as big a booster of Apichatpong Weerasethakul como tantos cinéfilos parecen ser, Tío Boonmee no obstante, muestra a un joven director seguro de sí mismo que se acerca a la maestría.
Every shot is so carefully composed and matched to the next that watching the film is like turning the pages of a picture-book found in a dream. Sure, it’s someone else’s dream and some of the pages are missing and it’s in a barely familiar if evocative (visual) language, but all that just deepens the engagement with the mystery.
Y, oh sí, una bonita, bonita princesa tiene sexo con un pez gato.
