Viewing Notes

The magic here is that I want to continue to spend time with these characters even during the moments when I find them repellent. There are many hilarious moments but plenty that are infuriating or otherwise ugly. But these are characters so real one can imagine spending several additional hours with them only to find there’s more to them than can ever be contained in any film.
