🍿 Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, 2010 - ★★★★ (contains spoilers)

This review may contain spoilers.

Still unpacking it. Some impressions:
- Eerie but never unsettling. Matches well the feeling of knowing death is coming.
- “Are you excited?” “It’s the same as when I would give a presentation.”
- Reminds me of Shape of Water because... well... you know why...
- Why did Jen and Tong have the out of body experience at the end? Maybe is it a manifestation of how detached you feel after someone close dies?
- I read this was the final installment in a series of projects by the director. Would love to watch the rest but I don’t know where to find them.
