I wish I could articulate film as well as Crumbs. Or others here. It’s hard for me to do so. I hate overthinking a film and working out what worked and what didn’t beyond the typical discussions such as direction, acting, cinematography, story development, and such. I’m not adverse to figuring out why a scene was interesting or what meaning they have, and even a movie, but anything too deep becomes difficult for me to delve into, especially when it comes to metaphors, analogies or anything esoteric.
That isn’t to suggest I’m above enjoying such things. Tarkovsky and Bergman for example have deep, meaningful films that I’m not always going to completely underatand. I’m just not good at discussing them well enough, although I’d like to be.
