an extraordinary film about being mentally ill and falling in love. one of the most empathetic and kind works I’ve seen in my life. many films would laugh at these characters, make a mockery of their grief and their illness, instead Burnett chooses to completely treat their situations with grandiosity and love, showing the strange beauties that come with devoting yourself to another person. it’s really beautiful to see people who believe that they’re alone in the world find someone who fits completely with them, it’s like getting another chance at life. it’s free on YouTube, please check it out.
