I watched it only once, in the 90s, and I’ve never been able to watch it again since. At the same time, I think it’s an excellent film.
The seemingly light and even humorous beginning of the film is bit by bit replaced by the sheer horror of the gradual loss of humanity and the final transformation into a monster. Simultaneously, in my perception, a glimmer of hope for a good ending is created, only to be ruthlessly destroyed at the very end. Even the music from this film feels overwhelming to me.
I highly recommend it, but you should never watch it ;)
1·3 months agoThanks for the kind words :) I completely don’t understand such childish behaviours, completely out of step with the current world full of actual moral challenges, rather than justifications for becoming agitated over trivial matters because someone said something they don’t like. And yes, I ignore such people. I have enough years under my belt and enough self-awareness not to bother with them. And you are absolutely right that some people, because of being pointed at by the mob for expressing their emotions (especially in a blunt manner), may start to feel guilt and doubt whether what they feel is “correct” and “healthy”. This takes away the arena for clashing viewpoints and is socially harmful. I have a habit of expressing myself in a blunt and graphic way, and I have no intention of changing that. Besides, acting otherwise, I simply wouldn’t survive in adult life and at work.

Dear armchair psychologists. Where exactly did I write that I killed any animal or in any way violated its bodily integrity?
I simply am not afraid of my emotions, I don’t feel guilty about feeling and expressing them.
And as for opinions on the topic of my psychological stability, my therapists would burst out laughing seeing these comments.
P.S. Do you people even know what hyperbole is?
You know… The fact that you like dogs, and I find them irritating at best and repulsive at worst, doesn’t indicate a psychological problem. I generally like animals. I live in a house surrounded by greenery and I really love the birds I take care of, the hedgehogs, and the squirrels who take care of themselves ;)
For me, being in the same room for a few minutes with a smelly, loud creature that climbs on your lap and licks your hands and face only makes me want to wring its neck. And it would be even better if it tried to do that after licking its own balls or after eating human feces it found in the park.
On the other hand, simply interacting with an animal that is compatible with a given person will have a positive effect on their psyche.

Vinted is a cancer, and you should avoid it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinted#Controversies. I didn’t know about it until I tried to create an account there and was blocked right away. After four days of passing emails back and forth, I wasn’t able to get an answer why I was blocked, even before creating an account. Then I thought that I couldn’t be the only person with such a problem, so I searched, and I wasn’t mistaken. On Reddit, there are numerous reports regarding similar problems.
Great. These eggs should be traded for security guarantees and weapons for Ukraine.
You have to commit an actual crime or you just need to be a Uighur then you will end up in a friendly concentratio… erm… re-education camp.
Do you even know what characterizes fascism?
Do aspects like the cult of leadership, hyper-nationalism, the myth of national rebirth, or state-directed capitalism, to name a few, ring any bell?
Bad troll! Now go back to your cave.
