1/1

I like weird stuff. Give me some Lynch, Noe or Jodorowsky and I'm a happy camper. This isn't quite as surreal (or as good) as those masters. It's a descent into drugs and meaningless sex. It's well made. Performances are terrific - Judd Nelson can proudly throw his fist in the air for this one! Better than Beastmaster.

1/1 has a good message about family and love and forgiveness. I mean, it's an odd movie and if the story were told simpler, it would be more effective. Any yet, in the end, I was touched.

Constructed the way a brain might actually process conflict, trauma, and transition, this film seethes with the dark side of emotion, allowing the viewer to become embroiled in each character's turmoil. The experience is effectively uncomfortable, an ultimately triumphant effort providing insight to perspective outside of one's own while bridging that gap with the familiarity of both feeling stuck and being jarred. Family rifts, mental illness, and the search to understand and accept oneself are intertwined through visual and aural art style unique to the filmmakers, breaking new ground. It is like nothing I've ever seen, and I hope to see much more from this team.

This is a filmmaking masterpiece, shows how you dont need a big budget and a lot of actors to make a great movie. It is so well executed. I loved the usage of text in transitioning the storyline and also the close up shots, which make a great point.

Lindsey Shaw rules. Liars rule. Judd Nelson rules. Dendrie Taylor rules. 1/1 has many strengths. It's a slow burn, so hang in there during the first 30 minutes. Actually, that was my favorite part, but my wife was like "nahhhhh." But then she loved the rest. Funny enough, overall, she likes 1/1 more than me. I don't get the title. Whatever.
