  6. I think it is better to watch the whole film rather than installments. But of course if it's experimental, that might not be the point.

    1. I like my movies to have linear plots that aren't so obscure.

  8. Mmm, not sure about this one. It's a bit abstract for my tastes. Did you enjoy it? Hugs Jo x

    1. No, I didn't like this one. Well, it was fascinating to watch, but not enjoyable for me as entertainment.
