For me, personally, It would be Snatch. It’s such a great movie that I could watch again and again. So many interesting characters and a unique style that sets it apart from so many other movies. There’s just that extra something in that movie

What about you, fellow Lemmites? What is your favourite movie?

    Hot take: I don’t “get” Spirited Away. Like I appreciate the art and animation, but the story and characters are a confusing mess to me. I’ve heard the explanation of “it’s a critique of Japanese society”, and looking back on it I can see the symbolism, but if you need additional context for the story to make sense, then I don’t think it’s a very good movie, at least I don’t think it deserves universal acclaim if it only makes sense to one specific culture.

      I found it relatively easy to understand the basic motivations of the characters without getting into metaphor, what about the characters confuses you specifically?
