Now, I've been meaning to watch Interstellar for a while. Just seems like the type of shit I'd enjoy, and besides the snippets I've seen on tiktok I haven't seen any of it.

What a film that was.

It was beautiful, terrifying, it confused me, and I understood every single word.
And yes, I cried.

I'm actually left a little speechless. I can praise it in 100 ways, from the acting to the beauty, the cgi, but I can't explain how it made me feel. The writing though, that was amazing. I understood what the characters were saying even though they were so much smarter than me. They explained shit I'll never have a grasp on naturally, as if they were talking to scientists with similar brains as them without sounding like a wikipedia page. And yeah, I was confused. And yeah, I had about four headaches but by God they were the best headaches I've ever gotten.
Throughout this movie I felt hopeless, I felt hopeful, I felt sad, I felt relieved, I felt betrayed, I felt emotions I can't even begin to describe. And jesus christ it was a blessing to feel them.
This is the second movie I've watched today that focuses on time, and how precious it is and I'm wondering how many more I can take.

If you scroll past here, YOU WILL SEE SPOILERS!!!

He travelled across the universe, to the other side of his daughters bedroom. And all this, to watch her die.
But by God, was this gorgeous.
