I caught this movie during the London Film Festival, part of my few random bookings to avoid only watching the higher profile flicks.
Lucky for me.
Rarely will I ever comment on a film, personally I like to experience films without intro or clue or expectation. So I wont be mentioning specifics. But what I will say is that as I saw all it's filmic influences and it's many original flourishes converge, as I experienced it's tone, its audacious style, as it stole big laughs from the strangest of places, as I thought of the joy that must've been had making it, as it surprised me at every turn, I was left in no doubt that this is a serious piece of art, and to me, a masterpiece.
I hope this gets the audience it deserves. I urge you to track this down. An instant classic.
