Dragged my entire family to see this in theaters with me. I’ve waited so fucking long, missing the original theatrical run was my single biggest mistake movie-wise.
The black and chrome version might even be my new preference. The color is staggering but its absence is no less staggering. Just perfect either way you cut it.
This movie is so good it doesn’t even feel real.

I’m finding it impossible to put into words the emotional stranglehold this had over me. I felt like crying for nearly the whole movie without really understanding why.

Usually with a documentary like this I'd use my letterboxd entry to rank…
